Saturday in Quebec City was a little cooler, almost perfect weather. Again, we did not see the changing of the guard with a goat. We wandered around the Old city in the morning, catching the show at the Musee de Fort and a tour of the Chateau Frontenac and then decided to get a sandwich and go for a mini-picnic. We got sandwiches from Paillard ( a fave of ours by now) and wandered up the hill into the newer part of the city. We walked through several cute little neighborhoods and had out sandwiches in a shady spot new the Grande Theatre. From there we continued to Cartier Avenue, a mix of shops and restaurants and then to the Joann D'Arc Parc near the Plains of Abraham. We sat for a little while in the shade and then moved on the Promenade des Gouverneurs, a few small hills away. This walkway hugs the cliffs below the citadel with panoramic views of the St. Lawrence. There were more street performances when we got to the Chateau, even a guy in gold lame singing Elvis!

We bought a nice print from a little artist's booth and then wandered around looking for some place that might have a table for dinner. We ate at a pub-style place where M. had a buffalo burger and I had a small steak. We also both enjoyed a Kilkenny beer. One of the best beers there is. Unfortunately they are not sold in the U.S.

After dark, we wandered into a few little shops; I bought a ring that matches my cute bubble print dress that my Granny made me. Matches it exactly. After that we had gelato and walked back to the hotel.
