Quebec City In the Rain

Traveling to Quebec City late next week. Early 10-day forecast calls for rain at least 2 of the 4 days we'll be there. Hoping for better, but just in case.... I was there a few years ago when weather was perfect to explore the city, but would greatly appreciate ideas for things to do in the rain (aside from shopping, restaurants.) We will not have a car. Thanks in advance!

Just take an umbrella and stroll around the city, you'll have a great time.
The Museum of Civilization is a very unusual, eclectic, hands on science/history museum, lots of fun on a rainy day. You can also tour the Parliament building.

Thanks Zootsi - those two activities sound perfect for a couple of rainy days! BTW, where is the Museum of Civilization? I know where Parliament Building is, but the museum is new to me...

Check out the churches. I went to one small church and was taught about ringing the bells in churches. Very interesting!
