I woke up earlier than I needed to today. Yesterday, room service took quite a while to I ordered as soon as I woke up. Today, they took even longer. Can’t seem to time things the way I want to. Our tour was scheduled for later this afternoon and the rest of our group was put on earlier tours. Earlier in our trip we tried to rearrange our schedules so we were all on the early tour but they didn’t have any room. If you show up to a tour outside of your scheduled time, you can wait on standby and there’s enough room you can join that tour group. So standby it was! We were all able to get on the same tour group but we didn’t have the best seats on the bus.
The bus took us out to Quebec City for a walking tour. In an earlier blog I talked about Montreal looking very European. Well, Quebec City is extremely European. It reminded me of the area around the Prince’s Palace of Monaco. The town we went to was a pedestrian town, with little boutiques, cafes and narrow roads made of cobblestone. You know, like the little towns you see in movies. The main attraction of the city seemed to be the Fairmont Le Château Frontenac which was the only place we didn’t go. Château Frontenac was built on top of what looked like the highest hill in the town which seemed to be visible anywhere you went. A quick google search later on told me that it was a hotel and we probably wouldn’t be able to access the chateau without booking a room.
Our day was actually pretty short day. When we got back we had lunch, headed back out to town to go to the shops that we weren’t able to check out during our tour and lounged around for a bit. We went to tea and I was able to catch a quick nap by the pool before we grabbed some food at the grill right before we met up for dinner. The more down time we have the more we seemed to eat
