Bonjour Qwee-beck?

I now have permission to not go to school on Oct. 7th, so we can go to Qwee-beck. That should be fun. I am looking forward to going, very much so. It will take 5-8 hours to get there. Maybe we can even peruse Mon-reAL. cool.
St. Joseph's Oratory, Montreal Botanical Garden, the Subway there (oCooloCool!)
The St. Lawrence River at Lac Saint-Pierre; an ocean mammel summer hang-out, and through downtown Montreal in Lachine, where it becomes quite rapide! We could also go on a cruise, go shopping downtown, or view some of the many art galleries there.

There's even a "Festival de la canneberge" (Oct 5-9) in Villeroy. We can visit some of the cafés, restaurants, and art galleries of Trois-Rivières, which is in the Lanaudière region, just North East of Montreal. There are many hiking trails there just at the banks of the St. Lawrence River. Lots of water fowl, and picnicing space too.

There is also the Canadian Centre for Architecture;
"The CCA's dynamic and provocative exhibition program addresses themes that are of interest to a broad and varied public. Focusing on the CCA collection, exhibitions engage fundamental issues like the nature of the city, the relationship of architecture to landscape, the interplay between architecture, art, science, and the media, and its impact on political, social, and economic conditions. Exhibitions and related publications draw out contemporary issues inherent in historical debates and invite new critical inquiry on these fundamental themes."

Of course, that's all very vague so far, but if I do a little research each week, I might even know a thing or two about our neighbouring province!
