Rita & I got back from the Quebec Club's Quebec City Grande  Rendezvous last
night around 9 pm. It was so rainy & cold we decided to  leave after the
brunch, a day early. There were some 230 vans registered when we  left. Not nearly
the 400 they were hoping for, but still an awesome number of  Westys parked in
a parking lot ! The 15th anniversary party ~ brunch Sunday  morning was
crowded with folks getting in out of the rain. Nice birthday party  for the largest
VW Westy Club in the world. It was good to be a part of it and  see a glimpse
of Quebec City. You HAVE to go see the movie show of Ropert LePage  on the
Bunge Silos.  We saw that with our friend Jean Benoit Thursday  evening.  Friday
turned into the only nice sunny warm day which we spent  wandering around the
old walled part of the city then took the diner river  cruise with the Club
on the Louis Joliet.  Saturday we tried to go out and  about but got caught in
the cold rain and finally made it back to the camper  where we stayed for the
night watching a DVD to keep out of the pouring rain  !  Sunday we packed up
in the pouring rain, went to the brunch and left for  home afterwards.

Many thanks to the Club members that worked so hard to put this event on,
great job, all of you !
