Montreal Part 3

 This is the third and final instalment of my Montreal blog. I want to apologize for this post being a week late, it is the end of term and I have been busy with assignments. This post starts off with a photo from the top of Mont Royal.  This picture is showing the bridge that connects the island of Montreal with the mainland. It also showcases some of the downtown skyscrapers. The second photo is of a plain brick wall and some may say that it is boring but I think it is a cool picture showing the detail of the brick. The following three pictures were taken on Mont-Royal they are of woodpecks, specifically the Hairy Woodpecker and Downy Woodpecker. The bird was flying around from tree to tree looking for some food while I was taking pictures. The final picture is of the view from the apartment's balcony of downtown at night. This is the final post from my Montreal trip, I hoped you have enjoyed reading about it and looking at some of the pictures I took. I'm not sure when my n

Montreal Part 2

This is the second out of a three-part series I am doing on my trip to Montreal that occurred during reading break. The first photo is taken from the balcony of the apartment that I was staying at. This day was really nice as it was nice clear skies and the colours were really vibrant. The second photo is of a little house sparrow taken outside the apartment building. The third photo is of the Biodome which was built for the world fair of 1967 which occurred for Montreal. It is now an environmental museum which focuses on reducing greenhouse gases. The next two photos were taken in the old town of Montreal of what I thought were interesting buildings.  The following photo is of the city hall in Montreal with the sun in the background. The next photo I took while I was walking to Notre Dame. I think this is the best photo that I took during this trip. The following five photos are just cityscapes that I took while walking around the town. 

Montreal Part 1

This past reading break me and my girlfriend went to Montreal for a holiday. We stayed at a relatives apartment which was centrally located. The first picture is showing the view from the apartment on the first day that we had there. The second and third pictures are showcasing urban architecture that I thought was cool as we were walking around town. The next two pictures are from inside Christ Church Cathedral which has a huge organ in it. The first of the two pictures are looking down at the entrance while the next picture is looking up at the altar. The next picture is from inside Mary Queen of the World Cathedral which is looking at the altar and the doom in the church. I have been inside this church before and it is honestly one of my favourite churches to visit because of its outstanding beauty. The last picture is of the Redpath Museum at McGill. We did not go in it due to a class being conducted in it but it is still a nice building.  Next week will have part 2 of my Montr
