Hello all, I'm planning a 4-5 day trip to Quebec City and the national parks north of it. I've been thinking about dividing my time between: 1. Jacques-Cartier National Park 2. Saguenay National Park 3. Tadoussac (Whale watching) 4. Hautes-Gorges-de-la-Rivière-Malbaie This is my map: http://goo.gl/maps/OoHh I'll be travelling with a 3 y/o and a 4 months old. My goals is to experience nature, some foliage and easy walks in the area. I'd appreciate your advice on the following: 1. Should I focus on one national park instead of hopping around? 2. Are all these parks suitable for such young kids? 3. Any changes/recommendations? Your help is greatly appreciated. Regards Dorian

Hi, Years ago there was a charming little farmhouse restaurant ont the banks of the St. Lawrence.

How many days on the average is the temperature below freezing in Quebec during the winter months?

I am travelling through Quebec, once again, to visit my daughter in Ontario. This time, however, I want to actually "see" Quebec. I have a couple of days and I want to travel along the St Lawerence River, go to St Annes, and see the waterfall that is near Quebec City. I have directions to St Anne's, but am not sure about the water falls. Can you give me clear directions? And can you tell me what else I should or could see along this route that would be of interest at this time of year. I want rest and relaxation, I want to be off the road before nightfall. I want to see the real Quebec. Tall order, I know, in a couple of days... but keep in mind, in a few days I will be going home and want to take a few days to that also. All the help I can get will be greatly appreciated. Beverley

Friends of mine will be traveling in October from Montreal to Quebec City, then want to continue to Boston, possibly in a single day. Air travel is quite costly, overland travel might offer colorful scenery at this time of the year.

So I really want to go stay in Quebec Ville for a few months, and the only time it seems possible is from November to, say, March. I've seen the weather tables and understand it'll be colder than I'm used to, but is it usually dark and grey cold, or clear and blue cold? I'd love to get back into winter sports, but after Cape Cod last year, the thought of another dark and grey winter makes me very sad. Thanks for your input!
