Home at the hostel once again


After a nice trip to a real city of Québec called St. George were we visited a family each. But before we could go and se the home of the family we ate at a very nice restaurant were they make food with a lot of the famous Canadian syrup, and that was an experience worth to mention. For the first time I tasted eggs with syrup, it had a very special taste but were actually good with some ham. And to dessert with got crêpes with a lot of syrup of course, and then we got something really special, it was syrup drip on some ice and then it froze so we were able to put it on a stick, it tasted really good and it was a loot of SUGAR, but when you like sugar, Québec is not a bad place to be. After this great meal we took of and went home to our families. I lived by Julie and Simon, they are both teachers at the school of St. George. It were very cosy, we talked a lot about almost everything and had a nice cup of tea. The house they lived in were under construction. Simon had build most of it himself I believe. But the most fantastic thing were that they lived right beside a big leak, and I was told that they were swimming in the leak to mounts a year, in the summertime of course. It was just an amazing sight to wake up to the light outside and the trees that were reflected in the water, it was a landscape of dreams. It thanks for this great experience. And Julie et Simon merci beaucoup pour tôt. (Thanks fore everything, I had a great time).
But it is getting late and tomorrow it is once again travel day, unfortunately. Québec I will miss you, but thanks for this time...                           

The Waterfall







Meeting the local people of Saint Georges

QUÈBEC! Suddenly finding myself in fantastic Quèbec. It is amazing here, the nature is beautiful, the air is fresh and clean and the people are very friendly. This monday we have been visiting locals in the city Saint Georges in the region Beauce. It has been very nice to try to speak french with the locals. I feel that I have improved my french this way.
We ate lunch with our Canadian guide, Linda, at a sweet local cafe. The food was very delicious and for the first time since we arrived to Canada we had vegetables! In the evening we ate at another local place near the forest where there were many maple trees. It felt and tasted like 90% of the food was maple sirup!
We were divided in groups of one or two and then slept at houses of different locals in Saint Georges. It was a very exciting experience! In total monday was another fantastic day! 
    

A day by the waterfall

Sunday a day of realexing inded, but this day we took a trip to a huge waterfall, it was about 30 meter higher than Niagra Falls. the wether was fine this day the sun was shinening, and there was no rain except from the rain the waterfall were creating. The nature around the waterfall was beautiful and the colours of the leaves were red, yellow, orange and green, it made a beautiful picture, and even though it was could the colour of the leaves made one feel warm inside.
We took a walk down the mountain near the waterfall to see it in another angle and it was beautiful and the sound of water falling were overwhelming. it was a fabouless walk. But when we have to walk the otherway upwards, we were amased, it was very hard to walk at the end and ones feet bacame even more heavy by every step.
After the waterfall trip it was ones againg time to do some shopping, and therefore we went to a shopping mall in Québec, but unfortunatly the mall closed at five and we arrived a tree o'clock.
Cood day everyone and the greatest greeting from Québec...

GOO REMPARTS!




Québec City



Welcome back luggage and good day Québec City


Yesterday I woke up to a lovely surprise, when I went down to the lobby I saw that my luggage was there. A fabulous surprise. The reason why it was gone was that a woman in the airport took the wrong bag and then she was to tired to get back to the hotel of ours and that was the only reason why I didn't have my luggage when we arrived. But I am just so happy to have my luggage back so that I don't have to by brand new clothes.
    After a LOVELY start on the day we went out into the rain and walked around in the fabulous city of Québec. We all got soaked wet, be we went on. I have found the city of Québec very beautiful and it is possible to relax here in this town. On our trip around in the City we saw this piano player on a street. But before we realised it Petrea were in his seat and played so marvellous, I myself was spellbound by her music. Her finger tiptoed over the piano, there was magic in the air.
The city of Québec exudes of history and grandeur.
In the evening we were to go to an ice hockey game, with the local team called REMPARTS! That was my first ice hockey game and it will not be the last one. The atmosphere in the arena was just amazing, and the audience were very impressive, which improved the atmosphere. Before the came we have bought some fan T-shirts, a finger and we have got some fake tattoo. So we were ready to support our team. A team that we can be proud of because they won, JUBIIIII… with 7 - 2, that maked the game even more exciting, than it already were. 
GO REMPARTS :-)
