Discovering hidden gems (literally)

My friend Shab and I took a stroll through the 'Old Port' of Montreal this wknd to take full advantage of summers last rays of sunshine. I've walked along those streets many times and thought I knew about every nook and cranny but discovered something new this time!  We found a bevvy of hand-made jewelery kiosks in this little cavernous courtyard just off Place Jacques Cartier.  It was a great find, although we were too stingy to buy anything ;)   Check it out...

Stairway to heaven??

The port! We were scoping, trying to get invited on a yacht. We'll pretend it happened!
