  • Magie des lumières 2012

    For the 20th year, the Botanical garden of Montreal organizes a chinese lanterns exhibit. For the seconde year, we went to have a feel of the magic. And it helps so much that we don’t need to buy tickets, and thus make a line to enter. First we went to fold origami ghosts and black…

  • Halloween preps

    Halloween is coming, and might very well be rained out thanks to Sandy. We will see. In any case, we did some preparations:  Halloween arrive, et pourrait bien être annulée pour cause de pluie, merci à Sandy. On verra. De toute manière on a fait des préparations: Halloween esta cerca, es posible que sera anulado…

  • Biking on (canadian) thanksgiving day

    A long week-end, cut short by some late night partying. Saturday we went to see Pepo la Citrouille, a play, at the botanical garden, before a cooking session followed by a baby sitting/party session. Sunday was more relaxed, but we made some great progress on the biking front. Which lead to a Thanksgiving hike at…

  • Bike technological shock

    Well after many years with a baby seat, my bike is baby seat free again. And we are using new technology. Après pas mal d’années avec un ban pour bébé, mon vélo est à nouveau libre de banc supplémentaire. Et on utilise une nouvelle technologie. Después de muchas años con asentó de bebe, mi bicicleta…
