A very gentle ride into Quebec City this morning. Until, that is, the Avenue de Saint-Sacrement, in the heart of the city, provided the steepest hill of the trip so far. Had me reaching for gears that I'd hoped to save for Gaspesie and the Appalachians. Mercifully brief, though, and at the hostel early enough to get myself unpacked before going out to lunch - which is where you find me. Hostelling again, very impressed by the Quebec hostel, which is excellently located in the old town. First impressions of the old town also very positive, just like a French provincial capital; which is, of course, what it is.
Tomorrow Pete and Jeanie arrive and we spend a couple of days here exploring the City, its bars and restaurants. Can't wait.
A few more pics here.
