Winter in Sherbrooke city has tobogganing and sliding at Parc du Mont- Belleuve. There is a winter Carnival where you can go tube sliding, a 600’ zip wire is installed and a tube sliding event can be found on King Street on a Saturday night; or tube sliding at the Jacques-Cartier Park, which includes dog sled outings, there’s also a snow park and wall climbing to do too.

Sherbrooke is a city is in southern Quebec, Canada. Its nickname is Queen of the Eastern Townships and its motto is 'Ne quid nimis' is Latin for "nothing in excess. I have to admire that motto. Its Region is called Estrie, it situated in the junction of two rivers; Saint Francois and Magog. Its first settlers were in the year 1793. It was named Hyatt's Mill before it was called Sherbrooke; firstly named after American refugees who On 29 March 1792 Hyatt sent in a petition soliciting Ascot Township land for himself and 204 associates; as land grants could be again be submitted according to the Constitutional Act of 1791 . In 1818, the Gazette of Quebec announced Hyatt's Mill shall be named Sherbrooke, honouring His Excellency the Right Honourable Lt-Gen Sir John Coape Sherbrooke.
Its Highways exits are

There are 166 633 person’s according to the 2016 census. It is written that Sherbrooke was the sixth largest city in the province of Quebec and the thirtieth largest in Canada.

Here are some videos of the sights I took photographs of while walk around in January. We didn't get much snow that lasted until March of this year. Enjoy!

                        

That's the way it goes
There’s no tomorrow without today
There’s no sunshine without the sun
There’s no earth without water
There’s no forest without the trees
That’s the way it goes, that’s the way.
There’s no peace without hope,
There’s no history without the tales
There’s no lesson without words
There’s no hide without the seek
That’s the way it goes, that’s the way.
There’s no love without heart.
There’s no smile without the joy
There’s no song without words
There’s no dance without the beat
That’s the way it goes, that’s the way.
There’s no sorrow without loss
There’s no pain without the suffering
There’s no wisdom without experience
There’s no passion without the chemistry
That’s the way it goes, that’s the way.
There’s no care without kindness
There’s no truth without the honour
There’s no rainbow without rain
There’s no moon without the stars
That’s the way it goes, that’s the way.
