WOW! For those of you who have an upcoming trip to Quebec City...listen to the advice you hear and read to bring good walking (hill climbing) shoes! You will need them.

What a great day of walking and seeing very old, cool, stuff. A couple of comments: Pat, sandals, really? Kim and I both have to get nice tennis shoes for our high walking days.

Mike...they are ECCO walking sandals and they are doing a great job. I actually have trouble breathing when I wear regular shoes when it is hot weather. Really. John says he is syncing as we speak. He is complaining that he was carrying a bag with our extra stuff in it yesterday so his arm didn’t swing as much, and he didn’t get as big a count as I did... Big baby... Just saying... He said it felt like he did 30,000 step but he only did 10,000+ according to the Fitbit.
