These are some pictures I took of a day hike last week (yes; last week in the ninety-degree-so-hot-I-can't-breathe-sleeping-naked-with-five-fans-on-and-taking-three-cold-showers-a-day-because-the-UQAM-residence-has-no-AC-WEATHER). I found a park with giant chess boards and then I took a stroll by the waterfront. The sun sets in a red haze, but the coolness of night is still... eighty-three degrees and humid as the Amazon.
I also stumbled upon a clock tower - THE Montreal Clock Tower. It's open to the public and if you're not afraid of heights, you Champlainers should check it out. The path to the top is a narrow winding staircase that wobbles and shakes with every step. At the top itself you feel a bit claustrophobic and on a windy day, you'll have to hold on to the rusty metal bars that separate you from the open air and a forty-five meter drop to certain doom. So, it's not for the faint of heart, you understand. But the views are incredible.
