My trip to Quebec was very memorable
           because the city seemed very European.
           One small street was particularly quaint
           and interesting. When I approached the
           street, I saw a set of narrow, stone stairs
           winding down to small boutiques below. On
           the right of the stairs, there were small glass
           tables at a caf辿 with red plastic chairs for the
           customers. This seemed very European
           since the tables and chairs were very close
           together as they are in European restaurants.
           .
           Overall, I will remember the feeling that I
           had while visiting Quebec for a long time
           since I felt as though I experienced a little
           piece of Europe while visiting the city.
