Rewind from the past - part two

 I've posted a few of the old photos that I recently started scanning, on Three Family Trees blog. But I like sharing a few of them here too!

For my Canadian blogging friends, I must share our trip to the Montreal World's Fair of 1967. (Corrected date, it was a typo, glad to have readers who comment and correct me!)

My husband and I drove with his brother and brother's partner and camped on an island in the St. Laurence Waterway. Big ships were passing by all night! But here we are getting breakfast ready! My back is turned (in white and yellow dress) and Rick is raising the spatula, while Claudette is paying attention to something or another.

Here there are three of us working, well, the two women are...and Rick is watching. That isn't a white bird by his elbow but a place where another photo stuck to this one in the album...but I did want to keep this photo anyway. My hubby was taking photos, but I think soon joined us. We had a lot of walking to do that day!

A birdseye view of the World's Fair, giving a sense of the scale of it.

Here I'm looking toward the pavilion from Mauritius, which is where Claudette is from. Rick met her when he worked there before returning to the states.

Rick was an architect in MA. We all enjoyed seeing Habitat.

The weather varied from when I wore my sweater in the morning, until this jump into a fountain in the afternoon!

I don't know if we went back and collapsed at the tent, or drove home to CT that night. Maybe my ex-husband will remember, or his brother. They are older than I am, so who knows if they have better memories! Rick married another woman a few years later, so Claudette isn't available to ask.

Sharing with Sepia Saturday this week.
