Today was “Dome Day” in Montréal for us. We first visited the Biodome by the Olympic stadium dating from Olympics in 1976. Afterwards we saw the Biosphere designed by Buckminster Fuller himself for the 1967 Expo.
The sun sets on a hot and smoky day in Montréal. We walked around quite a bit. Sunburned. Saw The Ring. Ate crepes. Hit Schwartz’s. Walked by a ton of murals. Drank with witches. Daughter pet cats. What a day!
Wife & daughter went to a cat cafe 🐈🫖 but my allergies prevented me so I opted for the Witch Cafe 🧙☕️ across the road. Drinking a sage latte, checking out the wands and spell components. You can get a tarot reading! Blessed 💫✨😊 www.instagram.com/moonbrewm…
Had a full day in Montréal: met with a friend, a lot of walking around, visited the Notre Dame Basilica, ate lobster poutine, and saw Just for Laughs on stage! #travel #photography
Walking around Montreal this morning I stumbled upon the Just for Laughs Festival! Other than smoked meat sandwiches this is probably the thing most Westerners like me know about Montreal. I grew up watching the Anglo comics on stage. Cool to see it in person!
Finally touched down in Montréal. That’s a LOT of travel just to end up in the same country. 😅
Woke up at 5am, ready to head to the airport for our family trip to Quebec. 🥱

Finished Black Powder War by Naomi Novik 📚
Whoever thought Napoleon crushing Europe could be described as “light” and “fun”? 🙃 Well, there are dragons and this isn’t Malazan.
Anyways, I am 22/20 for my 2025 Reading Goal. Was shooting for more papers but can’t quite help myself. #books #reading
Started listening to Black Powder War by Naomi Novik 📚 in the car on my drive to Kelowna and back. Got 71% the way in over the weekend. Fun to be with these characters again, and a nice light break from Malazan.
Back through the mountains 🏔️ to the coast 🌊
It’s that time of year where I visit my pal Nathan and check out his new keyboard with custom printed angled keycaps. #keebs
