Friday Sept 3 - Montreal

One more hot/humid day in Montreal- weather to break this evening. As you can see below, I was accepting my late Olympic medal for the triathalon at the site of the former Montreal Olympic Stadium.





Fly away little one, fly away--



We spent a few hours here at the Botanical Gardens- quite impressive.




They had a Chinese Pavilion with lots of figures in the lakes that light up at night.





Teaching him how to pose I guess




Took tons of pics-only showing a few




Petting zoo?




Moose sighting in the woods




BIG bee on this flower!




Mali, the sheepdog made entirely out of weeping brown sedge, an ornamental grass




Inside the greenhouse




Greenhouse





Went to Chinatown later




Dim sum lunch at La Maison Kam Fung





After a little rest, went out to the "Village" on St Catherine Street which was pedestrian only this summer. Had dinner outside at this Vietnamese restaurant then to a club for a little show afterwords. Clemente's ticket he got with his first drink was called s he went on stage (nothing new), spun the wheel and won us a bottle of champagne which we gladly accepted and downed during the show.
