Old Montreal

[fahim mohammed]

Supposed to be full of life and vibrant.in summer maybe. I visited the port a few days ago and found some
interesting buildings ( Notre Dame, of course. ) but passed them by due to the cold. there were not many people around and the eateries seemed touristy and trying to make do in winter.

It was a bitterly cold and wind swept day and the few pics I made were of the ships in the frozen river.

Thanks for looking.

Fahim,

How somber, massive and handsome! Horrible to have to work in that ice!

So does everyone just stop earning a living when it's frozen or is there something else to do beyond hockey, cinema and procreation?

Asher, what I noticed in Montreal was that a lot of activity took place in the ' underworld city ' during the day. People would surface, scurry along in the open and hurry back to the nearest entrance to the ' underground '. At least that's what I did, felt and believed I saw!

As for procreation..one has to go far east to find the masters of this art.

Regards.

In Fall

We visited Montreal in Fall - September - a few years ago and the Underground City was nearly empty with everyone out and about. The Old City was magnificent and full of life. We stayed at a hotel near the University and it was so full of activity.
