Lyle - Montreal, Canada

A little stroll in Mont Royal park one sunny Sunday in September

Panoramic view, worth the trek to the top :)

Time to reenergise with a little espresso and a blueberry muffin in Little Italy, North of Montreal


A cheeky cupcake for the tiresome walk back to the auberge

... oooo, learning a little french too, bonsoir mes amis et a bientot pour des prochains aventures :)

ps. I lost my oar whilst travelling across the Atlantic, but do not fear, it magically reappeared in the mouth of a whale in the St Laurent river.

Lyle - Bordeaux, France (Setting off)

I began my journey beneath the column in the Place des Quinconces, Bordeaux.



I did a few laps of the Place to get my spirits up but since it's one of Europe's largest city squares and my legs are only 2cm long it was rather tiring. I decided to have a little rest in a quiet, shady spot behind this bronze shell.


While resting, I considered where would be best to go next... wherever it is I hope they have muffins!

GUYBRUSH

I was found looking longingly out of a window at the University of Birmingham's Main Library, dreaming of the infinte possibilities that await a jaunty pirate like myself.

Although I had enjoyed perusing the anthropology books in 2D, I felt my ambitions lay elsewhere...out in the big world.

....who knows where I'll end up next...
