Mid December saw Margaret and I off on our next adventure to Montreal in Canada. We had the most incredible time and, yes, it was bloody cold.
Our hotel was great, with the advantage of being connected to the the miles of underground shopping malls and walk ways. As usual, we were out and about and were thankful that we had taken Jane and John´s advice about buying cold weather clothing.
On Christmas day we walked the streets and headed for Mount Royal in temperatures of minus 15 degrees. We enjoyed an incredible Christmas dinner of Afghan food. On Boxing Day we saw a performance of Cirque Du Soleil, which originated in Montreal. We had a great day out in Quebec and were lucky to have a tour guide who was really on top of his game. On the Thursday after Christmas we went to the Notre Dame Basilica and experienced an incredible light show. Canada is an amazing country and I´m sure that we will be going back.
On our return to the UK we went to Warrington to spend time with Margaret´s Mum. Since our return home to Spain the time has literally flown by. We have more short trips planned for the near future and are looking forward to our Caribbean cruise with David and Eileen in November.
Just to take a step back to the New Year. Margaret and I promised each other that we would share our time with people like ourselves, who would enrich our lives and, hopefully, we enrich theirs. I think that we have just about made that promise a reality.
More next time...
