They're coming back - between 21st February and 27th April. The kids are absolutely mesmorised by the myriad of colours flying in front of their faces - if they wear something brightly coloured, it will attract the butterflies to them as if they were a flower! Take your camera and get there early to avoid the crowds. This year's stars are the African Butterflies!

I took my kids to this event last year and they absolutely loved it! This year, it runs from 26th January to 10th February 2008. Entry is free, but parking costs around $10. Get there early if you take the car - the car park is immense and it fills up fast! A better idea would be to take the metro - the station doors lead you directly into the Fête. Some rides cost money, but most stuff is free and there are also sponsors giving out freebies to eat and drink - it's great fun!It's almost that time of year again for the Fête des Neiges at Parc Jean-Drapeau!!

Economuseums are not just museums. Tradespeople work from these locations and show the public the skill involved in making such items as glass jars and vases, violins, and clothing. Well worth a visit if you're looking for an indoor activity. Some places require reservations.Economuseums are not just museums.
