If it’s anything like last year’s, the event and its extra-curricular offshoots all promise to be great fun!

Fresh sausage sandwich from William J. Walter, Stewart’s black cherry soda, sun, park and my skateboard. If I’m missing anything, I really don’t know what it might be. :)

See: Art Tatoo Show Montreal

I love this artwork. Unfortunately, I had to resort to posting a cropped photo of their poster I took, because their site does not showcase the beautiful typographic work on the word Montreal coupled with the classic maiden artwork on a single pict, like the poster does.

“This heat wave this week is quite significant,” said Environment Canada meteorologist André Cantin. “We’ll have almost five days in a row with very warm temperatures and [with the humidity, it will feel like] above 40 degrees, especially during the afternoon.”

CBC News, via Montreal City Weblog

These 40 degrees are in Celsius…

Unfortunately, it seems like the Zone514 park will not be built again for the 2009-2010 winter season. Instead Park Jean-Drapeau management has decided to build a “super-glissade” which we highly recommend you check out.

This makes me sad… Guess it’s back to making our own improvised jumps in every Montreal park with a steep enough hill (Mont-Royal, Parc Lafontaine, Olympic Stadium, etc). Still a shame though.

Max Vincent took that one! So much height and precision!

Audio track is Galvanize by the Chemical Brothers. It was playing at the beginning of the finals so I thought it’d be appropriate.
