Photos of a changing city

The other day I walked around the city. It was my first proper weekend in a while, and so I decided to explore some of my favourite areas.

I got off the metro at Saint-François Xavier and walked towards La Grande Épicerie, where I wanted to get some lunch.

Along the way, I discovered the Jardin Catherine-Labouré, a park in the 6th arrondissement.

I decided to go inside and take a look. But as I was doing so, I dropped my Olympus mju ii and broke it.

Tried as I might, I couldn't get the camera to turn on. While the red light stayed on, I couldn't take any more photos. Though I had just bought a new roll of film that morning, I now had no choice but to use my phone.
