i was wondering.. where exactly u watch the fireworks, i know u once said here but i forgot i think..?
do u see everything and down side too?

I watch the fireworks at the Lorimier and Notre-Dame intersection.

From where I watch it, your on a nice high slope, and you can see above everyone's heads! Yes, I see practically everything! You should try it next year! It's a great view. Really good.


I also used to watch it near where the steel gate is on Notre-Dame way up front, but this was going back at least 5 years. The only problem of going by the gate on Notre- Dame is that you have to come earlier, but you also get a nice view there, but personally, I prefer where I am now, on Lorimier and Notre-Dame intersection.

I went on the bridge once and I didn't really like it all that much, because I was contantly inhaling smoke.

Plus, where I stand it's easy to get out of traffic because I'm right near the parking lot and I can get out with ease.

And it's also easier because I live in the West Island and the quicker I get out, the better.

So, you should consider coming around the area where I watch, you won't be dissapointed!

i still dont know where u watch them

where Lorimier?

anyways

here is a pic of where i stand

could u show me thro the map if ure anywhere near?

note: if it gives u an "error" page just put the link in ure address bar

hmm, I'm having some trouble putting a mark on the page to show you where I am.

But, on your map, you can see Notre-Dame and Lorimier intersection.

I didn't know you stand on the exit to La Ronde on the bridge. Anyway, it's clear across the bridge far past the Saint-Lawrence River near Rene-Levesque, as your walking that side of the bridge, look down and you should see Rene-Levesque intersecting with Lorimier.

For me to be more specific, I need you to tell me how to but a little mark on the map, so I can show you exactly.

Thx.

Oh yeah, that's a really good map! What a nice view.

click Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Paint

once there

u click Edit and Paste From and u past the map, once done u can start to write stuffs on it, with the tools

and save the file, now the problem is u need to upload the file some1 so i can view it, do u have a geocities account or something so u can upload

thanks!

i think i know where u mean, ure saying its the other side of Mondial SAQ, ive been there, but i juts want to make sure...

I'm still having some trouble.

When I click on edit, I can't access the paste option. That's the problem.......

I don't think I have an geocities account, though, but, I will still try.

I will try to explain in detail where I stand. On your map, do you see the massive concrete post that holds up the bridge with an archway in it on the other side where Rene-Levesque is? Just left of that giant post, you will find Lorimier and Notre-Dame intersection. I stand right at the traffic light on the median. It's a good view. You should come try it next year! It's very good!

So.....Do you know where I watch the displays now?

If you don't, I will try to draw it on the map, if I can.

OOPPPPPPPPPPPPPSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!

I accedently posted the same thing twice, sorry, my fault, just read the second version! I'll try to have Paul delete the first one. He'll know which one, the one without my signature!

Thx.

Trav.

lol hehe

unfortunately i dont know the names, im not good on that

but here, i made some lines on were im thinking u r

http://www.geocities.com/cutegry97/untitled.jpg

if im far try to tell which line ure more near, or maybe ure not there at all

Do you see where you made your purple line next to the post with the archway that holds up the bridge on the map?

If you take a ruler and measure 2 centimeters of the purple line from the right of that post on the map, I stand roughly right there next to the traffic light on Lorimier next to Notre-Dame. Can't miss it.

If you're still not sure, you can scrible something else on the map and I will reply to you to show you if you're getting warmer or not.

i think i got it now

and ive been there too only 1 time, somewhere in those lines but that was years ago, yes ure right it is good view, but i dunno if u can see every fireworks im talking more the down side, but if u say so then i believe u hehe

my view, yes its not that correct as view but if u look at it, its a very very nice view, u can really see everything

overall the best view will always be in La Ronde.. and that said, Paul is the luckyest one here

but i could watch from La Ronde too, expect u have to have the season pass and grab a sit

heres another pic i made where i used to sit for every show in 2000, that is the best and the free place that i know, u should really check it out if u ever go in a fireworks day

Yes, Paul is lucky indeed. I have to ask him about tickets and how you buy them in advance, because I'm considering on going to La Ronde to watch La Ronde Fireworks next year, and I want to get front seats!

Paul told me that he used to watch it where I am now, but after he was invited to La Ronde for something, I can't remember, but he told me. From 1996 onward, he has been attending the displays at La Ronde, he really is lucky.

But,I need to ask him about tickets. I think he would know. I will probably post a topic on it later on today.

The place, where you showed me on the map, I probably should consider going there, if I happen to be there during a display, I will definetely check it out. It looks like a nice view.

So, do you know where I am now? Well that's where Lorimier is and from there you will find Notre-Dame. You should come there again next year sometime. I wish I could show you the exact point.

Anyway, BYEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Reply soon,

Trav.
