Québec II.

The next morning we had breakfast at the Clarendon Hotel and ambled through the old town on our was to the waterfront for our scheduled cruise on the St. Lawrence. The heat and sun drove us inside on the boat. The cruise showed us the big island, Île de Orléans and the Montmorency water fall. After the cruise, Judy and I had lunch and Joe went off to buy a BD gift for Siobhan. After naps we walked around the upper city and climbed the gate in the city wall at Rue St. Jean and followed the walls up to Rue Saint-Louis where our next restaurant, Le Continental, is located. Excellent meal. Then back to the promenade for another show and then off to bed.
