Canadian Coast Guard
My work in Quebec City was conducted at the Canadian Coast Guard base. I was invited to tour one of the Ice Breakers, the Des Groseillers. It's huge! Engine that operates one of propellers is the size of a small house! Lunch with the Commanding officer, Denis Coulombe was wonderful and I appreciated his hospitality. Difficult to take the photo of the ship from the dock, so I travelled to the terrace on the upper Old City to get better shots. Notice that the ship is larger than the building itself!

Wow - you really can't appreciate the size of the ship until you see it in the perspective of the building!
