Oh Canada – the warring flags


We spent the day exploring Quebec City; very different from Montreal it’s equally as beautiful. As the capital of Quebec Province it houses its government and everywhere you will see the Fleurdelisé flag. The Government building however is surrounded by land owned by Parks Canada a Canadian government agency who deems it necessary to have as many Maple Leaf flags, the national flag as it can in the surrounding area. The Château Frontenac is over 100 years old and apparently the most photographed hotel in the world, you’d understand why if you saw it. Right beside it is the Dufferin Terrace where we had a nice walk whilst Louise entertained me with stories of the English outwitting the French and taking Quebec. It was a lovely day and as with Montreal I fell for Quebec, they really are two amazing beautiful, interesting and unique cities.
