This may sound strange, but my weekend started out in a penthouse and ended at a hippie-fest!
On Friday we were given a free night in the penthouse of the hotel where we had our wedding last year (a one year anniversary gift from the hotel). They had chocolate-covered strawberries waiting for us, and the room was fabulous.... what a view!
We ate a lovely dinner al fresco in the hotel restaurant, and it felt like we were tourists in our own town.
On Saturday I found a mediterranean grocery store that sells fresh vine leaves... now I have to try making dolmades.
Our dear friend Mark turned 30, so we ate a lot of celebratory mussels : )
(is it just me, or did my entire weekend revolve around food?!)
Finally on Sunday we spent some time on the mountain.
Anyone who's ever been to Montreal likely knows about tamtams, a weekly Sunday gathering where people come together to drum (often using anything from kitchen sinks to pots & pans), dance, and picnic. If you ever come to Montreal, it's a must-see!
