Spring Break in Quebec, Canada

a video and some photos from our trip to quebec this past spring. did some snowboarding in mont tremblant, then hung out in montreal...



mont tremblant is a charming resort town in the laurentian mountains of quebec. april is late in their season, so it was pretty empty... had most of the mountain to ourselves!
