Montreal Trip




Day 1: Our first stop is to Vieux Montreal (Old) and the kids already love the Metro (subway). The day was gray and overcast but that didn't stop us from exploring and enjoying our time. We wandered to whatever drew our interest; I did want to do our own walking tour but most of the times we just go with the flow and throw out structured plans.


We walked along the river and let the kids play in the park. We tried going to the observation clock tower but it was closed for the season. Boo. We did find the Basilica Notre Dame and it was pretty awesome. The kids can't handle that much culture very long so we caught a caleche (horse carriage) for a 30 minute tour. The driver gave out carrots to the boys so they feed Charlotte the horse before the ride and after too. At this time Hector realized he left his hat in the church and went back to look for it. Bummer, this was his LA Kings hat and he couldn't find it but the woman suggested he come the next day to look again.













Later in the afternoon the clouds began to burn off to allow better light for my pictures. Yay!
