October 16 - Quebec City and Clean Pumpkins

We are in Quebec City and as we walked around Old Town there were many pumpkin displays.  They were all as clean as a whistle because unfortunately for us the weather forecast of 100% chance of rain proved to be 100% correct!  The pumpkin displays and everything else was washed clean by the rain.

There are two pictures with this post.  In the first one I am standing in front of some pumpkins.  In the second one I am standing outside the Chateau Frontenac.

As a postscript, I want to tell you a funny story.  Last night as Lyle looked over our balcony there was no rain but a very heavy fog. He commented that he couldn't see anything - not even the water in the St. Lawrence River. I said that it was probably the way I saw most of the time.  Now comes the funny part. Lyle said that he guessed that we were both in the same boat.  I laughed because we were indeed in the same boat - figuratively and literally.  We are on a cruise ship!
