Quebec City




Look! I found a Canadian flag in Quebec City! =)







The same Canadian flag from another angle.







The museum (the building on the left).







Walking to the Citadel, past the National Buildings.







The Plains of Abraham, as mentioned in our Social Studies/History textbooks. =)







The entrance to the Citadel. The words below the crest are "Je me souviens/I remember."







A bit of a closer look at the crest above the entrance to the Citadel.







The view from the Citadel.







Looking down at one of the museums and some old military weapons on display.







Where the Governor General lives.







The Governor General's house.







One of the many named doors/buildings in the Citadel. The plaque beside this door mentioned the French-Canadian Royal Vingt-Douze Regiment aka the "Vondoons."

A display inside one of the museums which mentioned how the men in the Royal 22nd Regiment used to play hockey, the sport of Quebec. =)







Commemorating the Canadians' victory at Vimy Ridge in World War I.

My "dream house" is the building on the right with blue and white windows and doors. =)







Walking to the crêperie.







Casse-Crêpe Breton, the best crêperie ever! =)







Me about to eat my delicious crêpe. =)
