It has been a month since the last weekly roundup (and that one may have been for two weeks). It was a busy September. I had a birthday, had way too much work in a short burst before taking a vacation. It was a good month overall.

Our first ride in a few weeks after being away on vacation. We went along the aquaduct canal to Lachine and then continued along the water to a playground in Dorval. We briefly considered continuing to Pointe-Claire village but the train schedule didn’t work for a faster return to make nap time work. Instead, we continued back along the Lachine canal.

A morning to go to the playground on the way up Park and then to Marché Jean-Talon. We had a delicious (as always) lunch at Patati Patata on Jean-Talon before heading home. On the way home, we stopped on Ste-Catherine to listen to Oktopus (a klezmer band) and the baby danced up a storm.
