An afternoon in Lachine

Visited with Nene at her residence right after lunch. The visit has been long overdue, we haven’t been to see her for over a week, at least.

After spending an hour or so with her Nil and I decided to pass some time by the Lachine Canal bike path, in the vicinity of the Lighthouse, near the Dairy Queen restaurant – besides, we were due for a dessert after having lunch at the Marche De L’Ouest Winking smile

We picked up our ice cream treat from Dairy Queen (part of this long weekend Sunday treat we planned for us) and then proceeded to walk towards the pier area.

We sat around, enjoying our ice cream treat, enjoying the view, and enjoying each other’s company.

a small ferry that takes people from this side to the other side which is the Rene Levesque Park – cost $2.00 per adult one way

We had a fun time – right Tita Nil?
