shannon & mat

shannon and mat, our friends from london, came over for the christmas period to visit their families and friends. they had a busy schedule but took the time for another excellent dinner "chez jolaine et sébastien" and they took us to "la veillée de l'avant veille" at club soda. the latter is an annual evening (every 30th of december) of traditional folk music and dancing. some of shannon and mat's friends played in the band called le vent du nord. and so we danced, together with geneviève and mathieu (pictured in the top right corner) and hundreds of other montréalais. the band improvised while the "calleur" shouted the dance instructions through his microphone.
