Our outing to the Biosphere / Notre sortie au Biosphère.

Four members, one animator, our permanent helper as well as one parent and a volunteer driver headed of to longueil for the begining of our adventure.

The first thing was a trip on the Metro, several of the girls had never been on one before. Thought a short trip from longueil to St-Helens island, former home of Expo"67, it was nonetheless exciting.

At the Biosphere the girls learn about about how water works, ways to save energy, took part in an eco drivers race, checked out half a car and all the products it uses as well as learn about blue algae which is one of the concerns right here in lac-Brome. We brought along a lunch and ate outside where a variety of wild life welcomed us.

We checked out the solar house which had very eco-friendly landscaping as well as energy savings devices.
