You should have noticed me using my phone often to capture buildings and interiors on this trip. The outside was too cold, so I did not want to take my new camera out. In addition, my current setup (an APS-C with a 28 mm lens or the kit lens) was not enough to provide the wide-angle needed to capture these beautiful pieces of history.

I just love walking through the Old end of towns....Montreal & Quebec city are truly the best.... cobblestone streets, stone and wooden buildings..... it just gives a great feeling of going back in time..... cool
Montreal is so vibrant and lively compared to…., well ok I’ll say it. Ottawa. Maybe Eric can tell me the name of this pedestrian street.

The Montreal Canadiens joined the NHL in 1917 and were founded in 1909. The Canadiens are the oldest hockey team in the NHL, one of the oldest continuously existing sports franchises in the world, and also one of the most successful in all of sports.
Old Montreal is the oldest area in the city of Montreal, Quebec, Canada, with few remains dating back to New France. Located in the borough of Ville-Marie, the area is bordered on the west by McGill St., on the north by Ruelle des Fortifications, on the east by Rue Saint Andre and on the south by the Saint Lawrence River. Following recent amendments, the district has been expanded slightly to include the rue des Soeurs Grises in the west, Saint Antoine St. in the north and Saint Hubert Street in the east. It also includes the Old Port of Montreal. Most of Old Montreal was declared an historic district in 1964 by the Ministère des Affaires culturelles du Québec
