Beard Family Trips & Vacations

Quebec City, QC

October 20, 2011 - Aquarium du Quebec

 

Pictures from the Aquarium du Quebec:

  

Entrance to the aquarium.  The entrance is through a gift store.

 

  

After paying for admission you exit the other side of the building (below) and see this open area with various sculptures in it.

 

This is the acutal aquarium building you enter.  The walk from the entrance building to this was quite windy and chilly that day.  Going back out, it was raining also.

 

  

  

Entrance area of the aquarium building.  A bistro was located to the left and there was decorations for a Halloween event they had planned.
