Montreal Jazz Festival

One of the big Summer events in Montreal, is the International Montreal Jazz Festival. It happens every July and it is BIG!! I am not a big fan of jazz, but I do enjoy blues and I love the atmosphere of the Festival. I try to go more or less every lunch hour at least, since I am a couple of streets away from it! ;)

All kinds of bands play there - here, it was a Dixie band.

There's fun stuff for the kids too!

Went with my girlfriend G - took a pic in front of an old mirror - not the best pic ;)

The fountain of ... shovels??!! :)

    I think it is just unreal how many festivals are in Canada. It seems like a really fun place to live. I love all of the colors.

    Ok, I love that kazoo band. What a hoot! I would really like to see that shovel fountain. That would be a fun one to do a slow shutter speed on, Celine.
