Genevieve and Adam: Sept 2, 2007

Well we’re back from Q.C. and it was a great trip. So much food and wine, I think I put on 40 lbs while there. It’s ok I’m married now so that makes it all good. Right? The only downer was the train ride.

Not only was it 8 hours long VIA Rail supplied us the most ghetto train with no baggage car for the trip from Toronto to Montreal. That’s right carry on only! It was dirty with broken seats, to be frank it made the TTC look like first class. Honestly,  I would rather have ridden the subway for the 5 hour leg of the trip than this tin can.  To continue with my rant, VIA  in their ininite wisdom decides they will supply this tubular heap for the bulk of the journey and give us the newer and comfier train, complete with baggage car for the 3 hour leg from Montreal to Quebec City. I see the logic don’t you?

With all the transportation woes Q.C. made up for it ten fold. What a beautiful city with so much art, culture and architecture.  We stayed in an amazing boutique hotel in the lower city right near the St. Laurent called the Dominion 1912.  I strongly recommend this  place to anyone traveling  to  Vieux  Quebec. Great staff,  amazing service, and all the  right fine details to make the stay amazing.  We did some shopping and sightseeing, walked all around lower and upper town not forgetting to indulge in local fare and spirits. One of the highlights for me was our Brunch Cruise of the St. Laurent. A really good buffet, and amazing views! It was a guided tour with some information about the whole region historical and current. But the scenery was the show for me. I wish we had more time to spend there.

On another note I’ve been informed that our proofs will be ready either this week or next. Once I have some samples I will post them for all to see. Also if any one has any albums or shots from the wedding they would like me to post please email me here hitched2007@gmail.com

Cheers!
