Quebec City,Canada - Nice Place Yet Too Cold

We took VIA Rail from Montreal to Quebec City and the journey took about 3 hours. During the journey we enjoyed the very scenic village site, the large corn plantation, the beautiful mountain and terrain and a gigantic St Lawrance river. When we arrived at the Quebec Station, the temperature was 5'C. We went to the Quebec old city in which we discouvered a very unique building, a lot of souvenir shop, the street artist, a very nice and clean vegetables market and etc. Surprisingly, Selangor Pewter merchandise had also displayed at one of the shop .

Montreal, Canada - A Fascinating Destination

My first visit to the cold climate country and of course my first long hour journey (22 hrs) with a few flight transit. With the courtersy of Canadian Embassy, I and my wife did the preparation for about a month before the journey - the baggage, visa, winter clothing, the queen (duit Canada) plus a few US dollar and etc. Our eldest daughter, Amni (masa tu 4 tahun) had also with us. Our first flight to Incheon, South Korea took about 8 hours and we have to stay 6 hrs at the airport. We Ate apple pai (bought at Mc Donald, KLIA) for our lunch and performed the prayers at the religious mutliple hall. We just walked around the airport as we feel it is safe for us to stay there. A Korean Nanny who was on the same flight with us to Canada was friendly and had a nice personality. Our second flight to Vancourver took about 12 hours and we arrived at the airport at about 9 am local time. After immigration clearance, we have to wait about 4 hours before our next flight to Montreal. Our third flight to Montreal took about 8 hrs in which the flight stop at Winnipeg airport for the local transit and we arrived at the Montreal airport at about 8 pm local time. Immediately after checked in into the Clarion Hotel, three of us felt asleep (tersangat le penat) . We spent 3 days at Montreal city and another three days at Quebec City. Our friend from Toronto came to visit us in Montreal and we spent two days with them. Montreal, such a beautiful country with a nice scenery, unique building and landscape and friendly people. Most of the people there speak french. The weather was between 5'C - 10'C during our visit.

The Hongkinese

The fight to Hong Kong Airport took about 14 hours from Vancouver by Air Canada. We received an unfriendly Hongkinese Immegration Officer for passport clearance. We took light transit train from airport to Win Tai station and then the taxi drove us to the reserved Hotel. First night, we bought Nasi Briyani (Pakistani) from the one and only Muslim restaurant in Win Tai Road that cost us RM120.00 for 3 packets. My daughter wallop the beriyani within a minute after 8 days in Canada without eating rice. The next day, in the morning we took a walk to Hong Kong City. A very busy city with a tall building blanket the city and the worst thing is that I could not stand the smell (bau hanyir). The destination may worthwhile for branded item shopper but not for the traveler who love to see scenery and unique culture. Hong Kong is not in my list of the favourite destination.
