Jacques Cartier Park is over on the east side of the Alexandra Bridge as it comes into Gatineau. Here at one of the entrances, tulips line the way.
Also here is a larger than life statue of the great Montreal Canadiens hockey player Maurice "Rocket" Richard, a tough and gifted player who has long since been a legend in Quebec. The Ottawa River can be glimpsed in the background.
I came out to the main flowerbeds, filled with tulips.
Yo must have a lot of tulip photos on your hard drive! Always a pleasure to see them though.
