We were in British Columbia this past September to celebrate Broc’s grandpa’s 80th birthday. As you can see, we brought the sunshine with us! We spent our extra-long weekend enjoying the beautiful fall weather in Crescent Park, Dart’s Hill Garden, and the Stanley Park Seawall. Canada’s west coast is such a special place.
A Day in Québec City
I was recently in Québec City for work to visit Méga Parc, a new indoor amusement park at Les Galeries de la Capitale. Méga Parc is an amazing concept - try to imagine a steampunk theme park within an indoor shopping mall, where rollercoasters zoom by storefronts and rides reach the top of the roof deck - it truly is extraordinary. After our morning at Méga Parc, we had the afternoon to explore Old Québec City, where we were staying at Fairmont Le Château Frontenac for the night. There really isn’t much to do in the city this time of year - it was still winter temperatures - but it was fun to wander through the historic streets of Canada’s oldest city. My highlight of the afternoon was discovering the Maison de la littérature, a beautiful new library designed by Chevalier Morales Architectes with a Scandinavian-modernist aesthetic in the heart of historic Old Québec. I hope you enjoy my urban snapshots!
