the Honeymoon

Baron and Naomi's honeymoon in Quebec

Ready to Leave

The morning after their wedding night, Baron and Naomi got ready to leave on their honeymoon in modern times...

Arriving

It was a lovely, sunny, autumn day when Baron and Naomi arrived in Quebec City. ​Baron had booked them a suite at the prestigious Fairmont la Chateau Frontenac
Picture
They made their way through the Lower Town...
Picture
Picture
...and took the Funicular up to the Dufferin Terrace. 
Picture
The view was spectacular.
Picture
Picture
But the real attraction was the magnificent hotel...
Picture
It rose like a castle, high on the cliff...
Picture
Picture
...overlooking the Historic Lower Town, and the St. Lawrence River...
Picture
Picture
"I've always loved Old Quebec, and can't believe you actually got us a room at that gorgeous hotel."

"I think we should go and register, and get rid of our luggage."
Picture
"Good idea."
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
They registered and went up to their suite...
Picture
Picture
"Look at this view!"
Picture
"It's like being in the middle of a Fairytale castle."
Picture
Baron couldn't help but smile,  "That's amusing, considering we actually live in a real castle already, your Ladyship."
Picture
"What do you say we go explore the Old City for a little while?"
Picture
Picture
But she took his hand, and sat down on the bed...
Picture
Picture
"I can think of something else I'd rather do right now..."
Picture

Exploring

A few hours later, they ventured out to explore the Old City....
Picture

Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
"This place is so beautiful, but I'm getting a little tired. Let's head back to the hotel."

After a quiet dinner, they had a lovely, intimate evening in their hotel room...

Exploring the City

The next day they went exploring the city within the Old Walls...

They eventually made their way down to the Lower Town....

Out and About

The next morning they got up early.  "So, what's the plan for today?"
Picture
"We are going to go explore the surrounding countryside."
Picture
 And they headed east, and took the bridge over to Isle d'Orleans, which is situated in the middle of the St. Lawrence River.
Picture
It's a picturesque drive through rolling farmland...
Picture
Picture
...passing centuries old barns...
Picture
Picture
It was a bright, sunny autumn day...
Picture
Picture
...as they made their way around the island...
Picture
At the westernmost tip of the island, they stopped to take in the view of the city in the distance.
Picture
...just as a large ship sailed by.
Picture
Later that afternoon, back on the mainland, they explored the south shore of the river in Levis, across the river from Quebec...
Picture
There were three huge cruise ships, including the Queen Mary 2, docked at the base of the Old City...
Picture
...almost dwarfing the impressive Chateau Frontenac rising high on the cliff overhead...
Picture
"No wonder it's so crowded over there."
