Yesterday I took a different tact to the day. After going back to the hostel and dealing with a room change I found the book Oz, and spent a little time working my way through the first paragraph. I succeeded mostly after an hour. Yeah! I found a nice pub where I had sangria and realized I needed company. It's ok being by myself but I really enjoy being with others.
Next on my non list was to visit outside the walls and I went up to the pains of Abraham. They don't look like much, but that's what is amazing about them. They hide the citadel, a massive fortified military city on the top of the hill.
After a tour of the area I wandered back to the hostel, had a shower and it now early evening I went to the hostel pub to see what it was like. It took a while, but I did have some small conversations in French, learned a new card drinking game and made some new friends.
Once the hostel pub closed at 11 we went to another pub in Quebec in what I called the entertainment area and visited. A lady from.England joined us so alas my French skills got a breather. It was interesting to me that earlier in the day I noticed a need and later in the day it was fulfilled. Given a really late return to the hostel I also started off late today. But I did have an amazing pastry for breakfast and got some photos of the fêtes which I will post below.
I now have to prepare for tomorrow's departure and try to see a little more of this great city.
Oh I also purchased a small French book to read... Key words are that it's small and I hope easy to read as its a age 8-10 book. And musical spoons - caron l'écouyer. And as promised many more photos below.
Enjoy.
