Old Montreal

I absolutely love walking around Old Montreal...the stonework, cobblestone streets, tiny shops...it's like a tiny piece of Europe here in Canada.  I took the kids down to the science centre which is at the Old Port of Montreal.  Since the weather was nice I decided we could all have a nice little walk around the old part of the city.  Little did I know that after having more than enough energy to run and play in the science centre, my children would consider a 10 minute walk to be pure torture because they were exhausted.  Poor little things (just kidding, I told them to suck it up because Mommy wanted to walk around!).  Note to self: next time walk around by myself, not nearly as enjoyable with whiny children.

I told them in addition to the 10 minute walk I also required a few nice pictures of them in the old city, preferably with smiles.

happy children 

(happy they'll be heading back to the van soon!)
