My favorite place: Café les Entretiens

Café les Entretiens

One of my favorite place to go alone or with friends. It is on Laurier Est street, corner of Fabre. I often go there when I want to be alone and think because it is usually quite quiet during the day. Beautiful yet cozy interior with high ceiling in gold is amazing. You can have brunch, coffee and sweets and dinner as well. My favorite menu is an onion gratin soup!

モントリオールでの私のお気に入りのカフェ、Café les EntretiensはLaurier Estにあります。ものすごく高い天井（おまけにゴールド！）とプチテラスがすてきです。去年か一昨年に改装してさらに広々とした感じがします。ひとりで来ても居心地がとてもよいのが気に入っています。それとここのすぐ近所の友達と会うときに『例の場所で』というとここ、ってくらいよく使うかな。オニオングラタンスープが美味しいのでおすすめです！

Guy with a tin box on his head

The other day in downtown, I saw a guy with a tin box covered on his head... What was he doing?

Hiking Mont Saint Hilaire

Sunny long weekend comes to the end, it's Victoria Day in Canada today. I've decided to go to Mont Saint Hilaire with a friend of mine. 'Cause we know it's gonna be very very hot, so we left Montreal quite early (early for me) and arrived there at 10 am.

連休の最終日はヴィクトリアディ、この日間はずっと晴天そして暑い！2週間前に雪が降ったのにもう30度まで上がる気温。今日は前から行きたかったところへハイキング。モントリオールから車で1時間弱のところにあるMont Saint Hilaireへ。

So green so beautiful in the mountain!

There are several summits surrounding a central lake, Lac Hertel, we took a trail to the highest summit "Pain de Sucre"

Last 800 m to the top, it was steep! Rocks and rocks, you need to use hands to climb up. But it's worth it, the view from cliff top was breathtaking! You can even see the downtown of Montreal and Mont-Royal from there!!

緑が青々としていて（あれ、表現あってる？）本当に気持ちいい！この山にはいくつかの頂上があり今回はそのなかで一番高いPain de Sucreに向けて出発。最初はいいんだけど、最後1キロくらいから岩を登って行く感じになり、息があがってきた。息切れしながら到着した頂上からの眺めは最高！遠くにモントリオールも見えます。

I was sitting on the top of the cliff admiring the 360 degrees view...

Went down to the lake, Lac Hertel. there is a picknick area too in front of the water. I was so relaxed here and full-filled with fresh air. I wanna come back in fall to see colorful leaves!

頂上でおにぎり食べて、美しい景色を楽しんだ後は下山。降りる方が結構大変。なんせ岩を降りて行くから。下の方にある湖も行ってみた。ここもとてもきれい！秋になったらこの山々が紅葉で色鮮やかになるんだろうなあ。そのころにまた来たいです。
