Walking in a Winter Wonderland

So this week here at home we have had a surprising amount of snow. One day out of work and today we had a delay.

Trixie is not having the snow


It has been beautiful to see all the snow and has me reminiscing about our trip to Québec City for New Years. For this week the blog posts will be all about our snowy Canadian vacation in the most beautifully decorated Christmas town!
Arriving in Toronto!
Our first adventure out in Québec City

The bricks are made of ice!
Every building had Christmas decorations




We stayed in the Fairmont le Château Frontenac sitting atop a hill overlooking the Petit-Champlain district, which happens to be picturesque with all the snow and decor. Once we arrived I felt like I was dropped in a snow globe, everything was just perfectly covered in snow and lights. This place definitely got the magic of Christmas right! The hotel is by far one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. We were treated so well upon arrival and welcomed with beautiful Christmas trees taking over the foyer. I felt like Kevin McCallister from Home Alone 2, when he arrives in NYC. I felt like I was dreaming! If you are looking to stay in Québec City I would highly recommend staying here. Perfect place in the perfect location.

Decked the halls with lots of trees

Since we arrived so late on the first day we just headed out within walking distance from the hotel to find food. We happened upon several wonderful looking
restaurants, but ended up at 3 Brasseurs: Microbrewery and Restaurant on Grand All
ée. 


Grand Allée was prepping for their big NYE celebration so the street was closed to traffic and lights, rides and stages were being set to prepare for the big event. 


After dinner we wandered about and found Bar L'Inox This was a fun place to sit and have a drink or two. 



Since this was such a long travel day after a few drinks we turn in for the night in our fabulous room overlooking the the entrance of the hotel. 
Goodnight!
