Snowshoeing / LUMIÈRE / NEON
Last Sat I went snowshoeing at the Park national du Mont-Orford, and it was a blast. It was the perfect day, with the perfect company, in a beautiful place. Well… perfect… with the exception of the $185 speeding ticket I got on my way out there. At any rate, snowshoeing is a lot easier than I remembered it being as a kid, but a good workout nonetheless. My guess is that it’s a bit easier because the technology of it seems to have made leaps and bounds. When I was a kid I used snowshoes that were hand made for me by my great grandfather (tanned the hides and everything). At some point I’d like to try doing a fairly long run in snowshoes, but I’m not sure I’ll be able to get to it this winter.
Sat was a super fun but very long day. After getting back to Montreal we decided to check out the Festival MONTRÉAL EN LUMIÈRE. It was worth checking out, but the DJ bubble got a little too boring a little too fast. After that, in an act of insanity, we decided to dance the night away at I LOVE NEON. Tiga’s set was great, but we took off at around 1:45 because the techno was getting a little too hard and tiredness had set in with a vengeance.
