2010 Family Vacation: camping in Quebec

We made our annual August vacation trip to Quebec City and the Cot de Beaupre along the St. Lawrence River. Very beautiful country with fantastic weather (except for the rain on the first night of camping, which resulted in 2 wet sleeping bags! At least it was warm). Here are a few photos below for the curious:


At our Mont St. Anne campsite, we celebrated my birthday
 and our big dog's (Ita) birthday













Along the Promenade on top of the City Wall



















The Basilica of St. Anne de Beaupre - a major pilgrimage site dedicated
to the grandmother of our Lord Jesus in the flesh



















This is the Nave - a magnificent place with dozens of side chapels
and other pilgrimage attractions.



















Quebec is full of bike paths. We brought our bikes and did a lot of
biking through the old City and in the mountains.



















Our 3 musketeers at the Montmorency Falls.


























I think that next August we might visit Ottawa and camp in the famous (and huge!) Gatineau Park just outside of the capital.
