Highlights of our 2.5 days in Quebec:
-Explored Old Quebec
-Visit Chateau Frontenac ( a beautiful old hotel overlooking the St. Lawrence river)
-Toured the Notre Dame basilica, which is supposedly the oldest catholic church in Canada
-Toured the Notre Dame-des-Victoires, a beautiful little church which was first built in 1687
-Ate great food, even with our Levi who doesn't prefer restaurants!
-We had "Poutine" for the first time...which is fried potatoes, gravy and cheese curds on top...yes, our diet is lacking on this trip!
-We met some fellow Ann Arbor-ites on the streets of Old town...They both work for the University of MI hospital...small world!
-Levi learned how to "Neigh...." like a horse because there were so many horse-drawn carriages
-We loved our hotel. Levi didn't fit in the bathroom so we had some early mornings, but it was very cool and had an awesome breakfast. They even made an egg and sausage for Levi each morning
-We enjoyed watching many street performers who seemed to all have a knack for fire juggling.
-On our last day, we visited the Montmorency waterfalls and we all climbed hundreds, I mean hundreds, of steps to get to the top lookout. It was beautiful

Levi thought this chair was the coolest. It's a chair for the speaker of Parliament
