Tour des Voyageurs Mont Tremblant

... tickets for the gondola ride down. It was well deserved. I sure was not going to walk all the way down the mountain, having just climbed it.

In the gondola, again, the view was enjoyed and it proved to be exciting. It took a good 8 to 10 minutes. Once we got out of it, we proceeded walking around the place and do some window shopping. We spoiled ourselves by buying a Beavertail. It is pastry made to look just like a beaver ...

Un dimanche au Mont Tremblant avec Édouard et François...
Pour la petite anecdote, j'étais au lycée (en seconde) avec Édouard, et je l'ai recroisé complètement par hasard à Montréal! Le monde est petit! Bref, il est en PVT pour un an à Montréal avec son pote François. Ça fait bien plaisir, ils sont devenus des bons potes, qui vivent à deux pas de chez nous en plus!

Aujourd'hui, nous avons loué une voiture ...

... with is a paramedic - perfect! (I may have mentioned that before...can't remember...)

We had a wonder around, then went to Charles' sister's bed and breakfast in Mont Tremblant - it was a fantastic place with loads of really nice, vintage furniature and an old piano and a bar from Paris! And we had a very pleasant picnic outside with Charle's family. Twas a lovely excursion all in all!

... dos!)

On a rencontré des cerfs de Virginie, au moins 6, dont deux petits...! C'était trop cool!!! (J'ai toujours une pensée pour Moe et Tho quand je vois des animaux!!). Ne manquez pas les 3 videos!

Et puis après cette belle journée, on est rentrés a Montreal et on a fait quelques photos de nuit au belvédère du Mont Royal.

Voilàààà!

... the hotel with our food and had dinner. Heidi wanted to hit the pool before bed so we all haeded down to watch her. i went back upstairs soonafter because i was being eaten alive by black flies. All in all i had an amazing day and everyone but me is in bed. Sheesh people its only 9:30!!! Dad just dropped teh bomb that we might be heading home to morrow due to bad weather conditions! We'll see how it goes....heidi is missing you both tons!!

... across the Pont Laviolette (which I have been admiring from afar for like, 5 weeks). Lucky us, we got to cross it twice, since the first time we went through it, we were going the wrong way. :)

Nous n'avons trouvons pas l'hôtel très vit, et nous sommes arrivé à l'hôtel à dix heure environs. Au samedi matin, nous nous sommes réveillé à huit heure et nous avons ...

... we set out for a full day of skiing. I was a little cautious at first because I hadn't skied since I took that jump and hurt my knee which landed me on crutches. However, after a little warm up I was racing with adrenaline and screaming down the black diamond slopes. Wow, do I love skiing. I know this is kind of an odd thing to mention but the McDonalds in St Sauveur is worth a visit. I'm not normally a huge fan but this place is not the normal franchise ...

... had canoes, which we took out on the lake. I sat in the front and rambled to Laura about Swallows and Amazons and keeping a wary eye on the banks for rogue squirrels. Canoeing is actually really easy, as long as you have someone much stronger in the back doing all the work. After Laura had exhausted herself and I'd scared all the squirrels (even the black ones) away and run out of things to talk about, we walked down the road to ...

... was just to do it. So we did. That's right we did our first Canadian BLACK RUN!!!!! The rest of the day we chose to stick to blue runs and we were getting pretty good by the end of the day and we were absolutely flying down the mountain carving our way down. For the record I only fell over twice once after I stopped (go figure) and the other was getting off the ski lift where my skis got tangled with someone else's skis.
