The Cedars Val Morin

... surrounding us were breathtaking. Rich golden and red fire colours. The resorts were all outstanding and had the old Quebec architecture feeling. All very beautiful.

Once we made our way to the hilltop, we had two options. Either take the gondola or hike the 2871 feet (875 meters) to the summit of Mont Tremblant mountain. Being a beautiful day, we elected to hike. The pathway looked so ...

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 ...

Just a quick blog about Mont Tremblant!

I've never been anywhere like the village of Mont Tremblant before. It's some weirdly clean, very tourist orientated, colourful collection of shops and facilities, on the mountain, surrounded by some of the amazing Canadian scenery. There is a relaxed atmosphere, probably because most people there are on holiday. When we went there was a music/arts festival ...

... 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!

OK, I am tired. I will write more tomorrow (hopefully)… In the meantime, you can check out my pics. Keep in mind that since my camera was KIA, these are my friend’s pics. I have to wait for my camera to get developed to see mine…

... blancs lui ont transmis la religion chrétienne. Nippissingue n`était pas chrétien et ne croyait pas à de telles sornettes. Alors, un soir de conseil quand le calumet eut trois fois circulé autour de la fleur rouge dansante, Nippissingue se leva, drapé dans une couverture de lin rouge et blanc et il dit : " Hugh frères, le Grand Manitou ne veut plus voir son sorcier seul sur la route alors Hiawhitha l`accompagnera. " Alors, après que le calumet circula encore quelques fois, le ...

Most of this ski trip planning was left up to the other two couples. All I knew was to book Friday off and come straight home after work on Thursday because we were leaving for Québec right away. Thursday was a scramble, running downtown at lunch to get our skis rented while trying to juggle and sip scalding hot Thai soup take-out. Madly dashing around the house trying to stuff random warm clothes into my backpack. Senica was much more prepared, actually ...

Day 20 - New Years Day Another day of travelling only this time we have all of our bags in a camry or maybe that should be Cramry. Ok so we had a bit of a scary trip. When Phil was driving the roads weren't too bad. But when I got behind the wheel there was a stretch of road (luckily the girls were asleep) where there was high wind and it was snowing........slippery and it takes so much concentration just to drive in ...

... pine nuts and toasts, breaded and baked calamari with cocktail sauce, and the house drink -a mix of Chambord, Rum and fresh lemon juice, very refreshing and delicious. The service was also great. They made great suggestions and we were served quickly, even though it was crowded. The weather was perfect that day, which made the experience that much better.
