Was it a Brazilian-type carnival there? not bad

Great set of photos. I was just in Montreal for three days last week for the first time. I liked the city very much but left just slightly disappointed. I think I'd simply built up my expectations given the threads on this site and the city's international reputation. I do know that Air Canada is awful. We had the worst experiences both flying to and from YUL.

Amazing photos, as usual, mr.John! Thanks for sharing.

I like the variety of faces and styles in Montreal. Your people shots are excellent, as I usually say. I see Montreal very bohemian, something I like too.

Do you consider this last weekend as late summer? Probably in Montreal will be so.

I hope to visit Montreal for third time at the beginning of next month of October. I´m wishing to go there again, I miss Fall there.

Congrats and greetings from Madrid, Spain.

Looks like Montreal has some great "assets"!

Fun pics, thanks.

I was asking myself the same question. Early August is mid-summer to me, not late summer. Late summer would be september.

Some nice city pics hidden between the people.

Thank you for another masterful set Mr. John.
I feel like one day a close-up of my resting face is going to appear on one of your albums. Gotta make sure I'm looking real presentable when I'm out and about.

^ hmm, it looks like you might see montreal in a whole new way for awhile if you ate those mushrooms.

i like how the two condo towers suddenly sprung up out of nowhere downtown - made me laugh! great people shots too.

^ Really? Some "shrooms" - we call them champignons in this sophisticated syntax of ours - that grow on trees are perfectly edible and won't hurt anybody. But then you got to know about "shrooms." I wouldn't take a risk to pick any over there yet, but I'm kind of learning over here on every possible occasion.

You pick your gun and go hunting, ok?

Lol that's a joke. I'm nastily mocking you...
But you wanted that.

"why all zee arbre champignons are perfectly safe monsieur, don't you know? but of course."

oh lo lo.

and on our next episode, back on his feet after his hopital visite, mousquet goes to japan to try le fugu.

everytime I see a montreal thread I expect leather or butts.

The murder and funeral of Marco Campellone 24, an up-and-coming mobster whose mafia career was cut short by a severe case of lead poisoning (he got shot full of holes a la Sonny Corleone) he meet his untimely demise 3 houses down from where I live

Montreal is a precious gem of a city.
