Mont-Royal Park

Relatively close to the heart of Montréal, at the foot of the hill "Mont Royal" and by the "avenue du parc", is one of the biggest parks in the city. On weekends, the Parc du Mont-Royal is the kingdom of the rasta, the hair of every color, martial arts, juggling, picnics, sunglasses and outdoor sport. Although you can find this kind of environment in cities, this is on a very large scale, hundreds of people spend hours of their weekends in the Mont-Royal. But that's not all, there is also the gothic-medieval phenomenon. A clearing in the forest with a dirt floor, surrounded by trees is the scene of battles between medieval crowd of all ages, with shields and swords hand made with soft materials such as foam, faced against each other as a way of fun.

It was on March 4, 2009, minus 25 degrees, imagine yourselves getting out of the car to look at the viewpoint when you stop feeling your face, hands, even your knees! The floor was frozen, and I held on the bar so I wouldn´t fall. 5 minutes and running towards the car to the on the heater. There were some nice views, a pretty city, but too cold to handle.
