the citadel

So here we are on rue Denis... its picturesque to say the least. I'm not sure how old this house is but you can see from the pictures that it definitely has character. It feels like we are in Europe. the roads are very narrow and everything is made of huge bricks or rocks. Here is Kayla sitting at the park in front of the house that we are staying in (on the left corner, the white house)










Kiara - reading a book... the window looks out onto a park that is right beside/below the citadel.






a bunch of neat old gadgets on the mantle








the garage was really tight - about 3-4cm getting in and only about a foot once inside.










We are also a stones throw away from Chateau Frontenac. We can actually see it from the balcony.










Every day at 1200h and at 2130h one of the canons on the citadel fires a round. Because we are so close we can really feel it and even though we expect it punctual, it is always startles us.
