poupoune in metro

Poupoune doesn’t like the metro very much. Too many people/smells. She;’s very timid. But the walk in the snow on Mont Royal was really appreciated. Well worth putting up with metro travelling. This was the first time we used her dog boots. Although they kept falling of her paws (she doesn’t have much of an ankle), it kept her paws snow and ice free and warm. She made it all the way to the top. This is on the way back home. I don’t like taking pictures of people, but I just pretended that I was a stranger blinded by the cuteness of Poupoune. Which I was.

lookout

A view over a snow covered Plateau, with in the distance vaguely our expensive Olympic stadium. I’m sure there are commenters that can tell why it was so expensive.

snow truck

I’m not the only one who moved a lot of snow today. Apparently Montréal spends more money on snow removal than any other city in North America. Either because we’re bigger than other cities (Québec city, Winnipeg) or we get more snow (Toronto, Ottawa).

Lots of snow means lots of shovelling. I moved about three cubic metres…
