Attentive attendants

We just spent three days in the Beauport Campground, just outside of Ville de Quebec. It was very pretty, but more importantly for Sidney, had a terrific playground and a swimming pool. The end of our second day there Sid had met a couple of cute kids - Charles and Alexandre Gaston. Although they spoke only french, and Sidney only english, they got on pretty well and so he wanted to stay another day. Alas, the next day he had lost interest in playing with them. So we hung out by the pool. The pool was cold, the day was hot, and the lifeguards were everywhere. Most of the time, we'd be the only ones at the pool - the three of us. There were four lifeguards. They would sit as close as possible to you when you were in the pool and if you moved to another part of the pool, one or another would move their chairs accordingly. It was a bit intense.

In other news, I left my camera in the playground and it got swiped. I"m annoyed with myself and frustrated. That was definitely not in our budget. But we'll probably buy a new one. It seems simply wrong not to be able to photograph the world as we pass through it. After all, thats what one does in the 21st century, non?

Now its on to Montreal, in time for the Fete Nationale/Jean Baptiste Day, the Jazz Festival (I think!), and many friends.


A bientot!
