Our first full day in Quebec City was so action packed, I have to split it up into several posts! We had a lovely breakfast with the family and saw some beautiful birds on their feeders, including the evening grosbeak below as well as blue jays, some small, pretty doves and assorted sparrows.
Some of the beautiful birds we’ve seen so far: Evening Grosbeak.
We spent a lovely morning with my family, then my cousin drove us to the Metro station nearest her office. About 20 minutes later we popped up at the Central Station and waited to board the Via Rail train bound for Quebec City. We love travelling by train; it’s so relaxed and spacious, plus the snacks we bought on board were pretty good! In three hours we were arriving in QC and into the lovely company of another dear cousin and his partner who hosted us for the next five days.
My “art” shot. We sat in the last car and the sun was shining in as we pulled out of Montreal, so I took this pic of the back door. I liked the retro chrome and glass.
A beautiful sunset as we cross the river just before entering Quebec City.
