Last weekend, I went to Mont Tremblant and met up with a friend who’s now posted in Montreal. It was Canadian Thanksgiving weekend, so the resort area was really packed, but we had some fun wandering around a couple of the lakes in the area, shopping, etc.
Fall is in full swing in this part of Canada and the foliage was just beautiful. The drive up there from Ottawa was mostly two lane roads through cute little towns, and despite my GPS not being able to find the road I was driving on (and it was not a new road!), the drive up there and back was very enjoyable. I wish I could have taken some pictures while I was driving, but that would have been a bad idea, especially given my recent luck with raccoons. 😉 (I got my car fixed by the way, but that’s another whole story).
The most exciting thing of the weekend had to be finding a Mexican restaurant that actually tasted like Mexican food from Mexico. I’ve been to a few Mexican restaurants in Ottawa and they’re not bad, but just don’t taste at all like the food I was used to in Mexico or the Tex-Mex food that I know from home. This place, however, was amazing and tasted like the real thing I remember from my time in Ciudad Juarez.
I didn’t take a picture of the delicious Mexican food, but without further ado, here are a few pics from the weekend.
