Fairmont Le Château Frontenac, Québec City, Québec [Wednesday Evening]

Rumor had it there was a big room party happening on Wednesday night, but there were also still options for those looking for something a little more private to do, or just less party-minded.

The weather was mostly behaving as well, although perhaps with a light, refreshing sprinkling of rain here and there.

Halfway through the trip, people, try not to miss out on any Québécois fun!

With breathtaking views of the St. Lawrence River and the architecture of Old Québec, each of the 610 rooms and suites of Fairmont Le Château Frontenac offers a touch of European elegance. A luxurious stay at this resort will allow you to explore the wonderful historical sites of the old walled city, designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The chaperones have been randomly assigned suites, and the students have been given courtyard view rooms with two doubles or a king-sized bed ~~depending on what's funnier~~. Relax, take a bath, order room service--it's vacation!
[OOC: Your assignments are here. As always, NSFW posts go into personal journals!]

Whether you're at Le Sam Bistro, Champlain, Place Dufferin, or Bar 1608, you're going to enjoy a meal that has been making the Château famous for more than 125 years. (And the prices will make you grateful this was an all-expenses paid trip.)

Massage? Facial? Mani-pedi? All of the above? Moment Spa is ready to help you relax from your stressful half semester of teaching/learning!

There's an indoor pool and a gym!

We're halfway through the trip! Have you tried poutine yet? Or tourtière? Or sushi? Quebec City has you covered.

Saint-Roch is a hip neighborhood that sits a little off Quebec City’s main waterfront. It’s fun to explore any time, with its streets lined with boutiques, cafés, restaurants, and galleries. The area is especially attractive in the evening, when craft breweries open their doors for those who love unique beers and ales. Standouts include La Barberie Microbrasserie, Noctem Artisans Brasseurs, and La Korrigane Brasserie Artisanale. If you find yourself overwhelmed by the extensive range of venues, take a beer tour!

Tell us where you are!

I wish to travel.

Maybe you got the t4xt. Maybe you didn't! Maybe you just heard it from a drunken squirrel or there was just something in the air that night, but there was a party going on in the Frontenac Suite that night, and maybe you should go check that out!

A drag cabaret not too far from the hotel seemed like the kind of place Steph had to go, and although the drag brunch wasn't until the weekend they did have karaoke night on Wednesday. And her doing karaoke was a prime opportunity for Vi to give her all the shit in the world, so who was Steph to deny her such a gift?

Steph was absolutely not by any stretch of the imagination a singer, but see if that stopped her from hamming it up on stage to Joan Jett.

An entire restaurant devoted to vegan sushi simply had to be tried. So Steven and Llewellyn got dressed for dinner and headed there for date night.

Steven of course wore his hat, but he did remember to take it off once they were seated. He was almost as proud of that as he was the hat itself.

He got his glasses out to study the menu. "So many options! Aren't they clever?"

"The crispy rice looks particularly interesting," Watts mused.

Honestly, all of it looked good. It's possible he might end up stuffed to the gills with sushi tonight.

"I thought so as well," Steven said. "Do you think we should get the Omakase Deluxe? That way we can sample a few things?"

Nell was going to indulge in the 3 hour Present Moment Package before soaking in the whirlpool and steam baths for a bit. Then she was heading back to the room to order room service whil Gladio worked at the party.

Nell was relaxing with some delicious room service - more than she could ever eat herself between the poutine and the spaghetti bolognese and the grilled beef filet, but she knew that Gladio would be more than happy to help with the leftovers whenever he returned from the party.

She'd be stretched out on the bed watching a movie, and if she also ordered a dessert or two and some popcorn, well, nothing wrong with that!

"Plus another soup and a couple of the things that aren't included in that?" Watts mused. "Since it does say it's meant for one person."

"I like that," Steven said. He looked sheepish. "Better than my idea where we order two of those."

"I figure we ought to sample as much of the menu as physically possible," Watts said. "And- there is nothing holding us back from ordering a second round, I suppose."

"I think that's smart," Steven said. He looked at Llewellyn besottedly. Which was a common expression this week. And in general.

Nothing wrong with any of that at all! In fact, Gladio would have approved enthusiastically of Nell taking the most of a chance to really take some time to herself and enjoy it.

It was pretty late, though, when the party started dying down and a very tipsy Summee had released him from his bouncer duties. So when he came back to their room, he tried to be as quiet as he could when he came in to get himself ready for bed now, too, hopefully without disturbing her too much, especially if she was already asleep.

Watts gave him a shy grin in return. "I do try my best to be clever."

Steven looked at the menu options again. "More crispy rice then, do you think?"
