The Falls!

Mama, and Bonhomme!

Le Massala Restraunt.

Okay, so this is going to be my first blog entry, since no one can really keep track of me, I thought I would be a good idea to start blogging and let everyone know a little bit about my travels and where I am, and that you know, that i am still living and all that good stuff! So basically, now as I am living in an apartment in Quebec city, ever since my dismissal from the Katimavik program, I received a visitor one day, which as most of you know, was my mama! The main reason for her visiting me, was of course, to see me before I head off to Denmark to do the Au Pair program for possibly more than a year. The is between the time of the 18th-24th of Feburary 2011. The day my mother arrived, I headed to the airport super early to pick her up, and took public transit most of the way to the airport, and then I had to walk down a highway of icy DOOM for about 45 minutes to get to the actual airport. Guess the city doesnt want the bus to go all the way out there! So, on the way back to my apartment, we obviously used a different form of transportation, because there is no way that we were walking all that way with luggage just to catch the really unreliable bus! So, the first night that my mother was in town, we headed to a cool little Tunsanian restraunt, that is "aportez votre vin" and has really good food, just odd service! after that we took a little tour around the old city, but it was pretty cold, so we were saving that for another day. The rest of the days that my mother was here included these activities; a trip to the ice hotel, a hike out at the falls near where I used to live, shopping at Place de Laurier, a visit to the civilization museum, as well as a day long tour of Old Quebec city, which included of course, the Chateau Frontenac! As well as, lots of ethnic restraunts, a fondue night with my roommate, as well as lots of mother-son visiting time :) It was an awesome week and got me alot more ready for my future travels ahead of me. Anyways, at the moment I am at the airport, with my battery dying and no where to plug it in aparently, but where I am going and things that happened after my mom left will be left to mystery, until the next blog. Thanks for reading! Hope this kept you a little up to date at least, with whats been going on, and there are many future blogs that will be refering to the past so we can catch up on a few things that happened during the past year or so. Ttyl!
