Enjoying the winter !

Thanks to the Concordia Ski Club  and in association with the Geography Association, I spent last week-end on the hill of a mountain skiing ans enjoying the winter. With a group of friends from Switzerland, France, Roumania and New-York, my brother and I went exploring the runs of Orford mountain along with 400 others Concordians. The rendez-vous was set at 7am  in front of the hall building. 30 minutes later, we were en route for a day of Fun !!!! The weather was perfect, sunny and not too cold. The mount Orford was beautiful and not to crowed. Just what you needed,  to  make you feel better and fall in love ones more with Québec !

Like Elie I didn't go to the Big Apple, not because I did not have a visa permit, but because I was submerged by studying my statistic class and doing research for up coming papers.  I guess I underestimated the work on a 3rd year university... Anyway its almost time to say "its almost over". Even if, I know, it is still cold and snowy and it doesn't look  like it is about to change ! So quick, go sliding at the Mont-Royal before its too late and say"I'll go next year", like I have been saying for the last 3 years...

For Montrealers don't forger this Saturday night is the " Nuit blanche ", a night of partying all night provided from the city of Montréal. The STM, will be providing free shuttle buses between major events and also to major quartier of the city. A breakfast at 4 am will also be offered. The choice of where to be is immense, between ice skating in the old port or chilling at the ice bar of the CCA, don't worry you won't be bored...

Enjoing the winter before it's gone,

Peace,

Audrey
