Last Friday night, Rob was telling our friends at the Christian Deaf Fellowship about our trip to Quebec. There were a few things that I forgot to include in previous entries.
At the Montreal Museum of History and Archaeology, we saw crypts in the digs. I believe there were only about 5 or 7 crypts there, and there was one for a child. The others were for adults. Also in every other dig, there were displays of pottery shards that they were able to put together. That was neat. As a part of the dig, the museum staff were able to recreate the Old Montreal using models based upon on their research. There were models for 1600’s, 1700’s, 1800’s, and 1900’s, so you can see the evolution of Montreal over time. The museum has two buildings on two different streets, and the archeology dig connects the two by going underground.
If we ever go back to Montreal and Quebec, we would like to visit the Biodome and other museums. We would like to visit Ottawa to see the Mounties and Quebec City to see the oldest French settlement in North America.
I see everyone wants to see more pictures of the trip. I’m thinking about putting them up in Flicker or something like that. Any ideas?
Apparently, there are some glitches that I need to learn about wordpress. Since I cannot add more pictures to the old post without making it all messy, I have decided to make another post with more pictures of Montreal. Enjoy!
