so as excited as i am for all the weekend excursions and such , i so wish we only had them one of the days on the weekend !! after treetop trekking yesterday and then running all over montreal today , ontop of a whole week of work outside , im gonna be dead by the end of these 6 weeks !!
treetop trekking was so much fun yesterday !! it was pretty similar to the one in horseshoe , but some of the 'games' were a bit harder . no bigg though , still a good time :) we only got through 2 courses , but they were long and hard . we had lunch before we started , at the place . and then had a popsicle to refresh ourselves after ! :)
we had a family dinner again , but caroline wasnt home . but the other sister , vanessa was , with her boyfriend . and then we played a board game after ( y ) it was pretty much like Sorry , but with a different board . it was funn , getting to spend time like that with the family , and learning how to play in french lol
today , i hadda be up at 6 oclock , and we left the house at 6:55 to go to the subway station ! -.- it was way too early for me , i was falling asleep on the way there ! but the day was still good , for the most part . it was a good amazing race . we got all day subway passes , so we were all over montreal ! we went to places like the market , and had to buy things on a list to get our next clue , we had to find answers to questions about the Olympic stadium , shanna had to eat a salt and vinegar flavoured bug ( y ) . but we didnt get to do all the stations . one of the girls in our group ended up with a major migrane , and we had to call one of the coordinaters , and the paramedics came , they ended up taking her to the hospital . but it turned out that we think it was all just a show , and played out way bigger than it should have been . so shanna and i were so disappointed that we didnt get to go to the rest of the places , on of which was the Bell Centre , where the Montreal Canadiens play ! but after all the teams finished , we all went to a restaurant for dinner , that was famous for their poutines ! they had like 25 different poutines to choose from !! it was crazy . i finally got home sometime just after 8 , tired as ever after 2 days of hardcore stuff !!
so now i have another week of work ahead of me , and the Cirque Eloize to look forward to on thursday !! :) i miss you all , and love being able to keep in touch . !

Hey Emmer,
ReplyDeleteI'm exhausted just reading your blogs! But it sure does sound like you're having fun.
What a funny story about the boys running into Sheldon in Toronto. Andrew was making me guess and gave me the clue "his name starts with an s". OMG, that could have been anybody. When I finally gave up and he told me, I thought that was pretty cool that Sheldon even recognized them after only really meeting them once. And with all the thousands of people there, for them to bump into each other is kinda neat.
The boys loved the concert, although Adam found it too loud. Funny considering how loud he is most days. hahahahaha Hope Sheldon enjoyed it also.
Anyway, hope you're having a great day. 4 weeks left!
Take care.
Luv you,
Auntie Mona
