chinese lanterns

with our special guest from belgium, philippe p., we went to the botanical gardens where they organized the yearly magic of lanterns. first we went to the insectarium, then we checked out the lanterns, sometimes nicely incorporated in the chinese garden, often too flashy and kitsch. gotta love those penguins though!

meanwhile in japan...

children's wish

it's been a while since i posted an ad i made the music for. here's a little tune i made for 'children's wish'. i almost can say that charity became my specialty!

birthday

one day after marie's birthday, there was a little 'cheese and wine' party at our place. it was also the last time we gathered our montreal friends at our appartment - snif!

parc du bic

before reporting about our current westcoast trip, we have some catching up to do! here are the pictures of our trip to parc du bic. this parc is six hours north of montreal and is known for having one of the world's most beautiful sunsets. we watched one from the zodiac, and saw some seals too.

parc de la jacques cartier

after 2 years living in canada, and before leaving the country, we just had to do some camping! here are some pictures of our weekend at parc de la jacques cartier. we did some canoeing too. it was a heavy track for beginners like us but luckily for us we only remember the beautiful scenery of the valley!
