A Fruitful Weekend

Fall is the most beautiful season in Montreal, that is why I keep falling for fall, over and over!

The weekend is one of the lovely warm weekends.

On Saturday, after playing cards with friends for the day and a surprise nice visit from another friend who came with roses and cake, I went out with Anne to catch some sunlight. We went to Parc Jean-Drapeau. It is a park right across the St. Lawrence river, it is only a few km away but the last time I went there, I don't even remember when.

I took a lot of photos and Anna added more to her color collection. We admired the scenery from the other side of the city, for the first time in a long time for me. Walking on the bridge and seeing the city at night filled my heart with love and appreciation for the city.

It was a fruitful Saturday. I had a great time with my friends and I did 26,393 steps, 20 km, despite five hours of playing cards indoors.

My Sunday was filled with the following: walking while listening to French or talking with my friends, biking, dancing, and eating.

I left home around 9 am and got home after 9 pm.

Mont-Royal is the best place to see the color in the city so I went again to experience the warmth and the richness. Some photos could not do justice to the real beauty.

Line dancing has become my new hubby this summer. I am glad that I could dance for two hours straight and I loved every minute of it. Dancing by the river with nice music, I couldn't ask for a better way to spend my afternoon.

In between, I went shopping and bought two tops out of five that I tried on. I even had a quick meet-up with a friend at Atwater market. Désolée, Echo, on n'a pas pu se promener ensemble et discuter en français. J'avais tellement hâte de le faire.

All because I was anxious to go dancing in a new top I just bought. 💃💃💃

Bixi has been my best travel companion for my trips from here and there in the city. I picked up a bike to go places six fois 🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲 today!

Faire du vélo sur la piste couverte de feuilles était si tranquille et vivant.

After all the moving around, I really wanted to sit down and have a good meal.

Luckily, I was invited for dinner so went to China Town. 😋😋😋

With all I did for the day, I believe that I deserved a night out.

And I got a ride home after 3 hours of eating, chatting, and laughing. 😊😊😊

Steps: 34,707 = 26.45 km

Bixi: 18.26 km

It was indeed a very fruitful weekend.
