Quebec City – Day 3 Oct. 4, 2011

 

Today we have another day in Quebec City due to the storm in Nova Scotia.  The captain decided it would be safer for us to stay in the inland rivers than sail in rough seas and high winds to Prince Edward Island and Sydney.   Since we were leaving port at 11:00 AM we didn’t have a lot of time to go out.   It was cool and cloudy, but better than the 2 previous days.   The wind seems to have died down.     I went out into the lower town area for a walk, while Kos stayed on board to talk to the future cruise consultant.

Above you can see a photo with steps and a handrail.   This is very common in Quebec City since the hills are steep and during the winter it’s difficult to climb the hills and steps in the snow and ice. 

Below are some photo’s taken on the ship, including the dining room – which is at the back of the ship.  You can see the large window at the back of the dining room.

The evening show was a pianist named Brooks Aehron who was fantastic.   He’ll have another classical concert tomorrow while we’re at sea.

We’ll be sailing the Bay of St. Lawrence very slowly making our way to LeBaie.  Tomorrow is another sea day.
