i have no idea if im going, today there was some talk my sister wanting to go, but i dont know, no answer, i might not go, its 15min, so thats worth for a nice summer end, but its not worth to go there, im 50/50 right now, in a sence i want to go, but i dont feel 15min enought to go from Laval till La Ronde, well this really sucks now i dunno anymore

Hi Enkil, long time no see....er...hear!

I think it will be wonderful to go to see the display of the pyjama fireworks. However, I don't know if it will be a good idea to dress up in pyjamas to spend the day at La Ronde, although it can get you a great discount of 50%. The primary reason is due to the fact that the weather will not be cooperating next weekend. So far in the long range, for next Saturday, the forecast is calling for a high of ONLY 11 degrees celcius, yes, 11 degrees in August, and followed by a 40% chance of precipitation. My prediction for Sunday, the 31st, doesn't look like it will be any different.

Now, let's not come to any conclusions just yet. This forecast can very well change, as most of the time it does. However, if it changes for the better, I don't see how it will be that much better than 11 degrees, even if they increase it by an additional 5 degrees, which gives you only 16 degrees, which is not that comfortable, if you know what I'm saying.

My point is that it will be way to cold to dress in pyjamas, providing you can also bring a warm jacket.

This weather is rediculous, from straight summer temperatures to mid October temperatures, and I really dislike the months from late September all the way to mid April!! Fall and winter can't wait to get here! Summer finishes till September 21st, jeeze!!

Anyhow, I don't think I will be going to La Ronde next week, unless by some miracle, the temperature hits in the mid twenty's, or low twentys at least.

For the fireworks, I might attend, but I would have prefered to watch it at La Ronde, because I'm not sure about my spot where I watch the Mondial SAQ, at Lorimier and Notre-Dame intersection, I don't know if it will be different there.

Like you, I really want to go, but sometimes I think I shouldn't go, but, I really want to, to be honest with you. It would be nice to see one more display before the summer comes to an end.

So, don't know yet. If the weather looks good, I will definetely go, but if not........well you know.

As a final note, I think we should ask people, like relatives and friends to see if they want to go. I'll try to ask Paul for his opinion on the matter as well. So, we should try to ask others if there interested and yes, to keep an eye on the weather before we make a move. I'll try to give you occasional weather updates.

BTW, tell me if you change your mind.

Anyway, good to hear from you again, Enkil. Keep in touch.

Reply soon.

See ya!!!!!!!!

Trav.

i think summer is leaving us soon, even if they say 10c what they mean is its going to be cold, 10c is hot for winter-spring, but cold in summer (hehe)

i wont go to La Ronde, specially this kind of weather!

but still i wouldnt mind to go around La Ronde somewhere, i guess
specially i wouldnt go to the bridge, id prolly be all freezed up lamo

i guess time will time

I don't know if I will go, but like you said, time will tell.

Do you know if Lorimier and Notre-Dame will be closed for the 15 minute display? I know Frederick said no, but I want to be sure.

I think it's only closed for the Mondial SAQ. I can't wait till next summer, fall is getting an early start for some reason this year and like you said, 10 degrees is good in the winter-spring time, but horrible at this time of the year, I mean, it's still August! Sheeeesh!

BTW, the forecast changed, Saturday is mainly cloudy with an expected high of 19 degrees, I knew it would change. However, for Sunday, only 13 and mainly sunny.

Anyway, I have to go back to school tomorrow

Enkil, I made a countdown of my own till next year's competition,lol. It's far away..............

Anyway, back to school for me tomorrow and bye bye to summer, but still have Labour Day! I wish they had fireworks for the last day of school, wouldn't that be nice?

So anyhow, please tell me if you know anything about Lorimier and Notre-Dame, if there beeing closed or not, I know the bridge will be open. If you don't know, it's the place I showed you on the map....the purple line.
