you know about the Quebec Winter Carnival? It’s a lot of fun. There are
always exciting things to do and see there. They have night parades and firewoeks,

And we don’t have to stay at the Carnival
the whole time. I want to visit Quebec City, do some shopping, and go to some
of their great restaurants. So, are you interested in coming with us? Let us
know soon, so we can get you a room at our hotel.
