Chillin’ at the Montreal Botanical Garden
Olympic Park
Traveled to the top of the tower at Olympic Park in Montreal – even with the haze we were able to see the mountains of Vermont from high atop the city.
Butterflies
Took family weekend getaway to Montreal and visited the Botanical Gardens and the Butterflies are Free exhibit. Kids had a blast, and it was great to be in a warm, colorful space as we await spring here in VT.
Montreal Snaps
I wanted to write a longer post about our recent trip to Montreal… in lieu of the post never happening – here are some snaps from a bike friendly big city.
Montreal
Quick trip north to Montreal. Jen had a training session at her company’s Canadian office. Ava and I wandered town while I worked virtually – answering emails and phone via a fast data connection and the magic of international calling on a cell phone – while climbing, eating, sliding, eating, climbing, walking and bike gawking.
Montreal
Spent the week in Montreal. Lots of bikes. Lots of bike infrastructure. Need to get back with more focus on photographing the city…
Many ‘cycle tracks’ along side the main boulevards and streets – going both north / south and east west. Plenty of ‘bike lanes’ on minor streets – complete with sharrows near intersections or zones where cars and bikes need to blend. Lots of fixed gears, city bikes, and old 10 speeds.
