[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok you all convinced me! In mid August we’re doing two nights in Tadoussac, two nights in Malbaie, and two nights in Quebec City.

Would love more specific recs. We have two young kids (5 & 7) who are not particularly outdoorsy. But they can be coaxed/bribed into hikes. They do love animals (so possibility of whale-spotting thrills them), going out to eat at restaurants and bakeries, water sports and games, playgrounds, etc. We’ve done Montreal and everyone loved the Science Center, Biodome, and just hanging out at playgrounds.[/quote]

Fantastic choice. I wish you could do a few more days in each place, but that's OK. There is so much to do in each.

In QC - two days can be spent just walking around the city, visiting the citadel, going to LA plage (their beach that is right on the St. Lawrence), the aquarium, etc. If you had an additional day or two, I'd add a visit to canyon St. Anne which was one of our favorites and the church nearby (name escapes me but it's famous and honors Mary I believee). Add another day and you can do the waterfall - mount morency falls, which was pretty incredible, followed by isle d'orleans.

I've already shared our favorite activities in la malbaie. We drove from QC straight to the ship builder museum. After spending a few hours there, we went straight to maison du bootleggers for dinner, followed by a tour of the place. They offered an English tour later in the evening for all of us non-fluent French speakers. The restaurant turns into a really cool party by around 9 pm. Our boys (10 and 7) loved it.

I'll write more about Tadoussac tomorrow.  [/quote]
