Fall splendours after a rough night




























The roughest night we experienced on Arcadia was between Halifax and Quebec. We were in the quiz in the Crows Nest with our friends, when I felt faint and had to go down to the cabin which, being well down in the centre of the ship, was much more stable. I soon recovered without any drastic ill effects. The approach to Quebec along the St Lawrence River was spectacular, the long wide river was lined with fall colours on either side. I had no idea what Quebec would be like, it was a complete unknown quantity for me, but the colours on either side of the St Lawrence River on the approach to the city promised something wonderful.



























We were looking forward to an evening in the "Sugar Shack", a walking tour of the city and a coach trip to the Montgomery Falls. We were not going to be disappointed.
