Snowy Commute to the Open Door Drop in Centre

It's a known fact that winter can be pretty harsh here in Montreal. The coldest months are generally January and February. However it can start snowing as early as November and end as late April in some cases. This is officially my second winter here. I am getting more accustomed to the cold and snowy conditions. My winter clothes still fit but not as snug as before.

Here is photo journal of my commute to work in the snow. I hope you enjoy it.

 
My Limousine arrives
(Bus #24)
 
I actually have a couple of options when it comes to commuting to work, I can either take the Metro (Subway), or I can take the bus. I normally take the bus, unless its the wait is too long. It generally takes less than 20 minutes for me to get to work by taking the bus and walking which isn't that bad.
 
 
After departing the warm bus, the cold walk down to the Open Door.
(roughly 8 minute walk)
 

Don't forget your coffee, too expensive for my taste. Coffee is free at the Open Door with the possibility of having donated Starbuck pastries.
 
 


 
The end is near as I trek through the snow.
 
 
Here we are, the Open Door, operated out of St. Stephens church.
