So this weekend I did a lot of things.
First Saturday afternoon I went to the Olympic Stadium in Montreal. Frankly, it is not very interesting to see, there is nothing special, except the tower is leaning over the world, but the problem is that the tower and all that is around n 'that is concrete gray, the more he begins to have cracks and it is not pretty. We can still go to the top of the tower for a view of Montreal, but it seems that this is not the most beautiful view of Montreal. Finally, I did not stay very long, and here are some pictures.

Category: Montreal, Canada Training Indeed, today it was beautiful weather, I would have walked all day if I had not had my period. He's done well in the 20/25 ° C and for tomorrow it should be the same time, but unfortunately for the weekend there will be clouds.
At noon I went out to eat for the second time to celebrate a birthday for the second time too. Here the prices are really low. To give you an example, the first time I have spent only $ 13, or 8 € and yet I was treated to a full meal, a soup starter, steak frites with excellent onion sauce with vegetables, coffee and dessert in one part cake. Today, I pay 16 $ or 10 € and I was treated to pasta prepared in front of me and pasta, the sauce of my choice and with vegetables and seasonings of my choice and an excellent desert again, but I preferred the first restaurant. The prices are so low, perhaps because these restaurants are located outside the city center.
To finish my day with such a time I could not stand doing nothing, so I went for a walk in Old Montreal and Old Port. It really is as nice neighborhood. Here are the pictures.

Yesterday afternoon (Saturday) I had planned to go for a walk in Old Montreal, but there was rain and wind so I stayed in the mall about 18:00 I ate a pizza with chips that were soaked in a sauce with well with cheese, but it was pretty good. Then I went to the ice of the atrium of 1000 de la Gauchetière. At first I really struggled to skate because it was only the second time I did and the first time was in a lot of time over my skates were laced evil and I hurt feet, but after a while we think even more pain, or we do not feel older. Eventually over time I still managed to do quite well. But soon it becomes very tiring and I had to stop every 10 minutes. At the end I was so exhausted that I could hardly hold on to my shoes, until 23:00 am I returned completely exhausted, I could not stay until closing at midnight and it is a pity, because there were fewer and fewer people, and I began really to do.
Here are some pictures.

Category: Montreal, Snow, Canada Stage
Today I went to Mont-Royal, where normally I would have taken pictures of the gorgeous view, but my camera had no battery and anyway he was taking pictures of poor quality. But this time no problem.
But first, arriving at the Mont-Royal, I was impressed by the number of people, it seems that the street is very crowded, especially by tourists and yet on Sunday there are only half of stores that are open, but today it was very beautiful and people notice probably want to walk, however it was so beautiful that I was sweating under my coat. To return to what I did there had to exit the subway a seller of pancakes and a strange kind of lollipop maple syrup. As it looked good I bought one and they call it a "maple taffy on snow" as they lay on the snow line of maple and snow with a stick we get the maple to cool on the snow. It is sweet and very good, but after it was fingers that stick. Here is a photo to give you an idea:
