The weekend after my parents visited, we took a 5 hour car ride up to Quebec city, Canada. Since it was so last minute Dan quickly booked us a hotel online. He first came home and was like, the hotel is really expensive so I booked us a 2 star, which I didn't mind, but the cost was still kinda pricey. I figured we were staying inside the old Quebec city wall, which is a major tourist area so I didn't mind paying for the location. Little did we know when we got there, Dan had booked us the second best hotel in Old Quebec next the the Fairmont, no wonder it was so expensive. But, hey, who doesn't like to be pampered a little.
Quebec was like being in a foreign country. People spoke french and city maintained its old ancient charm. We went on a city walk tour and a night tour, it was great way of giving us a broad view of what it was like back then. Every building had its history.
I was surprise that I would keep with being almost 8 months pregnant and Isaac was great to travel with! We had breakfast at an our door cafe, shop for antiques while Isaac slept the WHOLE TIME. At our last stop we went to the oldest house in town dating back to the 1600s, which is now a restaurant. Once again, mommy and daddy were able to sit down and have a great meal as Isaac slept.
Before we left, we went to the city's old Citadel and watched the changing of the guards. I think the one person that really enjoyed it was Isaac. He marched with the soldiers and saluted as they marched by. Oh, there there was a royal goat that Isaac couldn't keep his eyes off of.
