My trip to Montreal - Canada

This was my 3rd time in Montreal (I previously visited in 2004 and 2007)
What struck me on this occasion was the complete absence of snow which is extremely rare for January, however it was still very cold with a temperature of -16 C (3 F) and a wind-chill of -25 C (-13 F) so I wasn't able to take many photos as my hands were freezing

Didn't you notice on the plane when you started talking, eventually I started reading the vomit bag?

Fantastic shots, pallo!

I like very much to see Montreal under the intense cold by winter. Montreal old city is very pretty. An that view from Mount Royal is amazing.

I suppose it was very cold, but I prefer that one million times to summer in Madrid. Today we´re reaching in Madrid a highest temperature of 102ºF (39ºC). Definitely, I prefer Montreal´s winter, though there is no snow on the streets.

Congrats and greetings from Madrid, Spain!

If it weren't for the winters, I'd have moved to Montreal years ago.

Thanks for the chilly tour.

I'm surprised I haven't been back already to stroll down beautiful streets like this to eat, drink, and soak in the local culture, especially considering I wouldn't need to fly to Europe.
