Museums, Lookouts & Fireworks

Today we started out was a brief walk in the Latin Quarter of Montreal then sat in a coffee shop to have a coffee and people watch as we were due back at the hotel to meet up with Michael and Melody.  It was almost as if the day could not decide what it wanted to do.  Sun out one minute then overcast and looking miserable the next.

One of the lookouts over Montreal

Michael and Melody picked us up and took us up to Park du Mont-Royal The park is beautiful and offers great lookouts over Montreal.  The weather decided to co-operate and it turned out to be a spectacular day.  We spent a couple of hours wandering around the park going to various lookouts some requiring more work to get to than others before heading off to the Musee D’Archeologie Pointe-A-Calliere which housed some of the original foundations from when Montreal was first settled.

Cute..
Oh so cute…

The afternoon was pretty much over, Michael and Melody took us back to there house for dinner.  It was a great way to spend the early evening eating and chatting with the family before heading out to see the fireworks display prepared by an Australian Team apparently.

Fireworks in Montreal
Fireworks just never seem to get old!

That was the end of our day and Michael drove us back to our hotel.  We said good bye and thanked him since this was also pretty much the end of our time in Montreal as we leave first up in the morning to head to Quebec City.
