The gf suggested going to Quebec for their Winter Carnival - I saw the website and I was sold.  Its the largest winter carnival in the world and lasts 16 days in late January until mid February.  You buy a $12 figurine pass (that hangs from your coat…More »

This famous hotel is a short drive away from Old Quebec.  It is a hotel made completely out of ice for a brief time each year.  Everything from the beds, chairs, chandeliers, and glasses (at the bar) are made of ice.

Each room/suite has its own theme…More »

The decor couldn't have been anymore picture perfect: exposed wood beams, cozy pillows/throws, fireplace in the middle of the room, and snow falling with the St Lawrence River in the background....

It's very rare that I find 3 of my favorite beers in the same place:

- Kwak
- St Bernardus 12
- Leffe Brune

Two wrongs don't make a right, but if you want to find the Hilton's parking lot, you need to make three rights.   I felt like Sisyphus looking for a parking spot (in Greek mythology, Sisyphus had to push a rock up a steep hill and right before he got…More »
