There are a lot of great B&Bs close to the heart of Old Quebec--let me know if you'd ever like some pointers.Teeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07943312952246047448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-146828060840285655.post-37822766183010297202009-05-26T08:22:02.574-03:002009-05-26T08:22:02.574-03:00I could see how Caribou could be useful for that p...I could see how Caribou could be useful for that purpose! Anciens Canadiens was quiet when we entered (4 pm or so) and packed by the time we left.<br /><br />We stayed at Chateau Frontenac, which is impressive in its own right, and walked, saw, drank and ate as much of Vieux-Québec as we could in 2.5 days. Walked around the Citidel and promenade...took a silly horse tour, which turned out to be great fun and surprisingly educational...watched street performers juggle fire on unicycles and play the sax (not both at the same time). We're already planning our next trip.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01701815231353263575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-146828060840285655.post-84889111879919016432009-05-25T18:15:19.033-03:002009-05-25T18:15:19.033-03:00Ah, Caribou is what you drink--poured hot out of a...Ah, Caribou is what you drink--poured hot out of a makeshift coffee warmer--during Carnivale in February when it's -30. No where else in the world do you see drunken adults in snow suits tilting back a big plastic cane filled with heated wine and stumbling through the streets!<br /><br />(I've yet to eat at Anciens Canadians--you always need reservations well in advance. Glad you liked it! What else did you see???)Teeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07943312952246047448noreply@blogger.com
