Although it was supposed to be a rainy day today, the sun was out and we had good weather. Old Quebec City has many art galleries and we visited quite a number of them, including Galerie Beauchamp which had multiple locations, one with three levels of stunning art.

The old part of Quebec City is largely a tourist area, but we discovered the Karkass clothing store that manufactured partially in-store and had very good quality.

We took a break from walking, galleries and shops and sat on a bench listening to Marc Levine, a pianist, playing beautiful classical music on the street. We talked to him and found out that he worked as a professional pianist and had travelled the world. He had a number of CDs for sale and we purchased one.

Lunch was at the Petit Chateau, right next to the Chateau Frontenac where we enjoyed a trio of fondues – cheese to start, beef as the main and chocolate for dessert. It was a decadent and filling lunch that also served as breakfast and dinner today.

Quebec City is full of life and street performers, whether musical or busking are plentiful. One busker was juggling knifes while lying on a bed of nails. Not something we’d like to try!

We want to spend tomorrow in Montreal so we drove there tonight and stayed at the campground next to the Marina in Longueuil. This time we even had a riverside spot.
