The following photos are my own, which I took with my cellphone on Thursday, April 23rd. I came across this cross and decided to take this photo. It was a gorgeous day...cool, sunny and perfect for walking! You can click on any image to see a larger view.

This is a statue in front of a Catholic church.

Same statue as in the photo above; however, this time you can see the left tower of the church behind it, so this photo is at a slightly different angle. Note how beautiful and blue the sky is!!! As well, they are doing some work on the right tower, which is why it looks kind of ugly. :)

These last photos are ones I took in a shopping mall! Yes, they had a stunning display that I enjoyed so much and wanted to share! You can click on any image to see a larger view.






The following video is a Just for Laughs Gag (Juste pour Rire in French) done here in Montreal! Enjoy!  :)
