The Montreal Olympics were in 1976. The Biodome was originally a bicycle racing installation. They had a steeply banked wooden race track.

Thanks for the video, Dan! I love visiting the Biodome whenever I am in town. It never gets old. And it's such an easy ride on the Metro.

Dan, "Beaver". Rosa, "It's an otter". Me, "Yes Dan, you are a bad Canadian." lol ;) PS: Beavers eat at home because it is cheaper.

Thanks for your video on how to get from the Montréal airport to downtown. I went to Montréal last year and enjoyed my first solo travel in Canada. I felt like I was in Europe (though I’ve never been there). I went to the Biodome thinking it was the Biosphere 😅; silly me. I would love to go back to Montréal Botanical Garden just across the Biodome. And also visit the Insectarium which I missed. I would love to visit again and also stop by at Québec City. Enjoy the summer 🌞.

I've lived here 5 years and still confuse the Biodome and Biosphere sometimes hahaha

@@thoughtsontravelandlife It could have been named Montréal Zoo or anything that could indicate the presence of animals. It’s a long walk from Botanical Garden 😅. I’m not a fan of zoo but I like seeing 🐧 penguins up close. Edit: Rosa has a cool Fujifilm camera 📷 and the strap that seems comfy to wear for a long trip. If you ever visit Calgary, I think you’ll enjoy the 1. Calgary Zoo 2. Bow Habitat Station & Sam Livingston Fish Hatchery

@@thoughtsontravelandlifewill you visit St. Joseph Oratory? There was construction on the site last year. A museum will be built as well. I look forward to walking up the stairs instead of taking the shuttle bus. That is, if I wouldn’t be acrophobic seeing how high it is. Enjoy your summer trip. I’ll be taking down notes 📝. Merci beaucoup for sharing your solo adventures or with friends.
