Oh my god, we won't miss that, for sure! Thanks for posting these, Jim. I am so psyched to cycle around Quebec, it's the best way to discover a place. I've never been farther east (in Canada) than Portage La Prairie, Manitoba (which I think is the halfway point in Canada).

I'd lik to see Toronto one day too. My daughter flew in there during your worst snow storm ever, when the city was basically shut down, so I only heard about snow snow snow and people having fits fits fits about it.

Hey I know that, I saw that during my introduction, the people of Nijmegen destroyed it for a large part (that Roman temple/Christian church - it was turned into a church later, lower picture) because they needed money and the stones were somehow precious or something, so they sold large parts of it.
