Visiting Montreal's Port

Old Montreal's port area is always an interesting place to visit.

On our last trip to Montreal, the weather was hot, so we waited until evening to head over.

 The area was full of tourists.



 

Stopping from time to time to admire some of the lovely old architecture, we made our way to the river.

A number of boats were moored in the harbor.

We stood admiring them, wondering what it would be like to work - and live - on a large yacht...

Hope many people are needed to staff these luxurious ships? we wondered...

It was dark before we finally tore ourselves away...

The evening air was still warm as we drove past the illuminated arches of Notre Dame Basilica - our final view of this lovely old part of the city.
