People who tried this

When I arrived, it was 15 degrees Fahrenheit and snowing sideways. I had some time and walked the Old City. Many say Quebec City feels European, and I’d agree. It isn’t just cute, it is darned cute. Wooden signs hang outside storefronts, cozy pubs line the streets, streetlamps cast a warm glow. As I approached the castle-like Château Frontenac, the city’s most famous hotel, the realization struck me: My God. I’m in a Christmas movie. It took me fifteen minutes, though, to step in my first puddle [...] Freeze wrapped my foot. I still enjoyed the walk in this adorably quaint city, but one hour and four puddles later, it was time to call it quits.
