... We visited the observatory of Montreal Olympic Park and the Biodome, all under a blazing sun.
The observatory is a beautiful ... building with elegant curves and surprising when you consider that two thirds of the tower are concrete. Overlooking the Olympic Stadium from the top of his 175m and its 45 ° inclination, the observatory offers a panoramic view of Montreal and its suburbs.
From left to right: St Laurent, dominated by its 3 bridges, the old town, the new city with its skyscrapers and finally Mount Royal.
Once downstairs, we headed to the Biodome. This converted former velodrome is home to five natural areas restored. We walk the jungle so to Antarctica through the forest as a group of Canadian kids raving to every creature. We have stayed a quarter of an hour watching the penguins play. We had great fun! However, I have a thought for the Lynx, who must find her life very small space (one hundred square feet or less).
I'd end this triptych by this quote from the Montreal General
Vive Montreal! Vive le Quebec! ... Vive le Quebec libre! Long live French Canada! And vive la France! "
Signed
A tramp air ladle.
