"A fascinating life cycle
Butterflies and moths are always among people’s favourite insects, and never fail to impress. Their graceful flight and bright colours are always attractive, but there is more to it than that. Their life cycle is also a fascinating saga. From caterpillar to chrysalid and then to butterfly or moth, they undergo a series of spellbinding transformations. This is your chance to take a front-row seat and examine the different steps in his marvellous metamorphosis, guided by our enthusiastic activity staff. You can get a close-up look at caterpillars, enjoy the chrysalids and admire the spectacle as hundreds of Butterflies Go Free." -Montreal Botanical Gardens website team.

This is along one of my favourite trails called the "The P'tit Train du Nord". The cycling trail, 187 km long, is built on an abandoned railway line north of Montreal and heads into the Laurentian Mountains. This part of the route goes from Val David south.

gallery: ANTIGUA - GUATEMALA
During Holly Week, Antigua, Guatemala hosts the most beautiful religious celebration in the America, when huge processions wind their way through the town’s streets. Actually, the celebration begins on Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent, and reaches its climax on Good Friday, when Antigua streets are thronged with processions and reverent spectator. The processions consist of big floats, or 'andas', bearing statues of Christ with a cross, that are carried by hundreds of purple-robed men.
gallery: ANTIGUA - ALPHOMBRAS DE ACERRIN
The Carpets tradition (Alfombras de Acerrin), is where national and international visitors crowd streets not just to see the processions, but also to participate in the detailed elaboration of these colorful carpets to adorn the processional route.
gallery: PEOPLE OF GUATEMALA
Just over 60 percent of Guatemala's population are of mixed Amerindian-Spanish descent. The remaining 40 percent belong to one of 23 Mayan ethnic groups, making Guatemala one of the countries with the largest indigenous populations in Latin America.
gallery: GUATEMALA - TRADITIONAL DRESS
Traditional Mayan dress is still worn in many parts of the country, particularly in rural areas.
The patterns and colors of typical Mayan blouses and skirts vary from region to region and often from town to town.

gallery: ARCHITECTURE OF ANTIGUA GUATEMALA
Colonial Architecture of Antigua Guatemala - Today its monumental bougainvillea-draped ruins, and its preserved and carefully restored Spanish colonial public buildings and private mansions give form to a city of charm and romance unequaled in the Americas. In 1979 UNESCO recognized Antigua Guatemala as a Cultural Heritage of Mankind site.
gallery: LAKE ATITLAN - GUATEMALA
Lake Atitlan was formed when a volcanic caldera depleted of its magma. Three stately volcanoes, Atitlan, Toliman and San Pedro rise gracefully from its southern shore, their perfect cones reflected in the azure mirror of the lake.
