29 August 2022 Quebec City Old Town

 


We finished up at the mosaics and snuck in a lunch in at another park.  Then we drove to old town Quebec where Leslie plotted parking.  It took us to three spaces next to a sculpture and a church.  What a find in this very crowded area.  We may have paid for parking, or not, as the machine was most unforgiving.  We strolled up and down and east and west and all around.  On Rue St Louis we saw a sushi place and thought it best to stop.  We felt that a sushi roll would replenish essential fishy bits that we had depleted on our walk.  We stayed the 2 hours that we may have paid for and then went off to St James Street for a book.  I found a great book for 4 bucks and the chocolate museum was across the street.  Back in the car for SQDC and then to the pad.
