Since I was born in Montreal, I'll post some pics of the place where I was born too.

Here is the town hall :



The Botanical Gardens in autumn :



University of Montreal (where I'm going soon):



Cool panorama :



Bell Centre, home of the Montreal Canadiens :



And finally, the Olympic Stadium :

RIP in bossa nova heaven.

Thumbs Up



My town is actually really cool and I'm proud of it. I just can't show the good sides of it since there's about 3 pics on the internet. Wink

RIP in bossa nova heaven.

Tony, if you like at the pictures by Atkingani, everybody will be on the brink of degrading his hometown Wink
 
By the way, the Montreal Olympic Stadium once hosted ELP while making their video Fanfare For The Common Man. But I prefer Quebec and Vancouver Clap

Aah, the Olympic Stadium, venue for that iconic concert by ELP.

Fanfare For The Common Man (full version!) was a highlight on the Uk's Old Grey Whistle Test music programme that year.I will never forget those pictures...

Hey there, Bern. Those red trees are quite a sight. I grew up in a very, very little town called Llay - Llay, wich means "Wind wind". Yes, it is rather windy. I remember moving to this place, Quilpué (Place of turtledoves), and thinking that I was arriving to a futuristic land. I was very young, off course. Anyway, great pictures. As soon as I stablish myself in my new home, I'll try to post pictures of it.
¡Beware of the Bee!

I lived in Quebec City for 4 years and it's also my favorite town in Québec. It's also the most beautiful in my opinion. Smile

RIP in bossa nova heaven.
