Montreal Pictures

I finally got Bob to take some pictures.  The weather has not been so nice and so the pictures are not as nice as we would like.



While we were walking to get breakfast at Tim Horton's, we passed a fire house and the alarms were going off to alert you the fire truck will be coming out soon.  We thought Aiden would like this picture.



On the first day of the hop on hop off, we stopped at the top of Parc du Mont Royal.  Here you get a great view of the entire city of Montreal.  There still was some color on the trees.   But you can see that the day was cloudy.


On the second day of the hop on hop off, the driver allowed us to get off and take pictures at the Church of St. Joseph.  I forget the number of stairs up to the church but one set of them are made of wood so that the faithful can climb them on their knees if they desire.


Just another view of this beautiful church.


The second day when we stopped for the view of the city, Bob was able to get a better picture.  The center structure is from the 1976 Olympics.  The baseball team, the Montreal Expos, did not like playing indoors so they moved to Washington, D.C.  and are now the Nationals.



We sailed under the bridge in the middle of the picture.  It spans the St. Lawrence River.


Another view of the city.
