Okay. Quebec City is the cutest ever. If I had to use one word to sum up this city it would be undeniably adorable. Oh, is that more than one word? ;) This city is definitely the type of place you come with your lover - it is very romantic with lots of street cafes, cobblestone roads, little shops, street performers playing guitars and pianos and violins. And the fact that there was 3 weddings today at the Hotel Frontenac will attest to that!

It was a beautiful day yesterday, super sunny and warm, and my mom and I made sure to wander all of the streets and see the sights and take in a few drinks on a couple nice terrasses. We also saw a free Cirque du Soleil show! Craziness. Today it's been raining off and on and we've taken in some history and done a few guided tours. And - I'm trying to speak as much French as possible!! Yes!! I can almost get by at a restaurant now and not speak any English. Feeling good.

All in all, Quebec City has definitely captured my heart.

I cannot tell you how jealous I am. Green-eyed monster x 10000. I have always wanted to see Cirque du Soleil, and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs are my FAVOURITE. I love them with a deep, passionate, and undying love, and I would marry Karen O in an instant. Do you have their latest album? I've been listening to it like crazy...
Sting is also way cool. But I LOVE the yeah yeah yeahs.
