... because Guy has a wacky beard on. (costume photos to follow)

Olivia, next year you can have blue cake as well!

We made a second attempt at viewing the lovely Chinese Lanterns, this time accompanied by Pascal, Simonne and Agathe. The wait was a bit long, and the crowds were almost unbearable, but in the end, it was worth the effort. Simonne and Alice walked around hand-in-hand, and hid behind bushes with Guy to scare the little ones and mums. We even ran into Renee and the Hugos ! Merci de nous avoir accompagné !

On Saturday night we made the trip to the east end of Montreal to see the Chinese Lanterns and pumpkins at le Jardin Botanique. Apparently we weren't the only ones with this marvelous idea... We knew something was up when it took us an hour to get there, which is normally a 20-min drive, then there were about 200 cars just waiting to get into the parking lot! After finally getting a spot, we saw the lineups... to pay for parking... and then the lineups at the entrance. Since it was already bedtime for the girls, we strolled around the parking lot trying to get a peek though the fence, drank hot chocolate, and the DROVE HOME AGAIN! Thanks G+G for accompanying us. Thank-you Alice and Estelle for being so very patient. We'll try again later this week... Guy trying to scale the fence to get in Ready for anything!
