Hubby and I spent a few days travelling through Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont in the USA, before adding a touch of French influence to our lives by visiting Montreal in Quebec in Canada. The weather gods were playing nice again for us as we had fantastic hot dry days and balmy nights. Hubby had to dig deep to remember his "french"... but he did well ! He managed to buy food and drinks for us and although the hotel staff didn't speak ANY english... he reserved our room.
What would I do without HiM ! : )
Along the way we saw....
In Montreal... we walked around the OLD town, visiting lots of little shops-souvenier and art, cafe's and historical buildings. The first pic shown however wasn't taken by me... I'm just showing what the city looks like for those who have never been to it.
OLD town
Montreal even put on a fireworks display for us... how cool... and we watched it from a bridge over the St Lawrence seaway. It was magnificent ! This week the fireworks were put on by Canada and last week by Australia. It's an international competition and I believe China's was fantastic.
Next, we are off to Quebec City also in Quebec province. I'll show you more pic's soon.

Lucky you, I would not remember my French. Glad you are taking in the sites before heading home.

Dang girl, you're getting around - beautiful pics!!! I'd love to see Montreal but I don't speak any French!
Love the photos they are beautiful, wouldn't mind that wagon for my garden. Enjoy your holiday, Michelle.
I am so enjoying your trip. It makes me nostalgic for the east.
What a beautiful area. Your photos look great and the weather looks nice and sunny.
What fantastic photos Cheryll looks like you are having a wonderful time....very clever hubby indeed!
Stunning Photos, love all of them! I know no French at all and would have been totally lost! Enjoy your adventures
Yes your DH did do well. Gorgeous photos thanks Cheryll.
Enjoy your holiday
so so so pretty and I love that you can travel and update your blog at the same time *wicked*
First it looks like you are having a great time. I just found your blog after reading a comment on the "Want it, Need it, Quilt" blog. Imagine my surprise when I saw your name, Cheryll. My name too, with the 2 l's! I have never seen another one, I am 63 y/o! My Mother tells the story that she had chosen the name "Cheryl" prior to my birth if I was a girl. A fiend had her baby 1 week before my birth and "took" the name! My Mother was furious, so she kept the name and tacked on another L. Nice to meet you! My blog name is Corinne, after my grandmother.
such great photos, thanks for posting these
