Biking!

Hi,

Well, the big news in our family is that Gabriel got his cast off the other day. For the first couple of days he was afraid to walk on it but by Saturday he decided to give it a try. He still limps and we have been told that he could limp for up to 6 weeks but he seems happy to be able to get around more easily. We took the kids to the botanical gardens on Saturday so he was happy to get out of his stroller and explore a little bit.

On Sunday we took the kids up north to the Laurentians to bike on the "petit train du nord". It is a long and scenic bike path through the Laurentians made on the spot where the former railway track used to be years ago. It is a beautiful place to go with the family with lots of lovely spots to stop and have a picnic or just contemplate the view. Mathieu rides attached to the back of Vincent's bike so he pedals his little heart out. He did quite well too as we managed to do about 30 k in total. Needless to say he fell asleep in the car ride home.

Our camera was not working yesterday so I borrowed some pictures of the bike path from off of the website! Those people are not us sitting on the rock but we had lunch on a very similar rock to that one so use your imaginations!
