Vacation to Vermont & Quebec - episode 1

One of the first major events of our vacation was Samuel's decision to change his favorite color from green to pink for obvious reasons:

















The Ben & Jerry's brochure had this pink ice cream cone on it and Samuel was determined to have one. But alas, the free sample of the day was white mint chocolate chip.














We drove from Vermont to Joseph's mission stomping ground, Montreal and suburbs. We climbed the stairs & trails to Mont Royal (getting lost because Joseph had only done it in the snow once 10 years ago!). Samuel and Daddy had lots more energy than Pregnant Mommy who trailed behind, complaining that this reminded her of the hike on our honeymoon when we also got lost. In a startling similarity, we learned at the top of both hikes that we could have driven to the top. But we are better people for walking.
