It was a crazy week. Back from Chicago only to turnaround and dash off to Quebec City and Halifax. Thursday was the craziest … awake at 4:00pm to catch a flight from Quebec City to Montreal and hence to Halifax. Dashed about Halifax looking at sites then flew home to Toronto … ah, nothing like a 19 hour day I always say! hehe
Thank heavens I’ve no travel, save a trip to Guelph this week! Ironwoman Judy and I were fortunate to have great weather in both places and we did get to see Robert LePage’s video installation “The Wall” in Quebec City harbour on Wednesday night. It celebrates Quebec City’s 400th Anniversary and is displayed on the grain elevator silos in the old harbour. Very neat!
We stayed at the uber old-world gorgeous Chateau Frontenac, which while not a W Hotel, is still pretty darn fetching. On Thursday, we managed a very quick lunch with my Nova Scotian staff at Murphy’s on the water in Halifax and had the table sitting directly beside Tim Horton President, Ron Joyce’s magnificent yacht, which was in the harbour.
