You may not know this, but January 10 is a special day. No, it’s not a holiday, but it is indeed World Tintin Day. Since our beloved globetrotting hero is in the spotlight, we thought we’d pay him a little tribute by imagining what his adventures in Laval might have been like.
Our hero and his famous dog, after a very long journey from the ends of the earth, could have arrived in Centropolis. After a journey that was anything but relaxing, they would certainly have been very happy to discover a place easily accessible by public transportation, withculinary offerings is impressive and where the nightlife caters to every taste.
After checking their luggage atone of the nearby hotels, they could have planned an evening just the way they wanted.
Our favorite globetrotter and his funny friend, the ship's captain, could both have been invited to take part in the Cosmo Mission at the Cosmodome. Once aboard the Astralis shuttle, they could have determined whether life has developed or could have developed in the past on the moon Europa. At the controls or from the control room, they would also have had to bring the shuttle back to Earth and ensure the mission’s success. An experience they might have described as one-of-a-kind in Laval.
After one of his best friends went missing, the guest of honor reportedly went looking for him in the eight forests of Laval. On snowshoes, on foot, and even on cross-country skis, along the trails of Bois Sainte-Dorothée, La Source, L’Orée des bois, Armand-Frappier, l’Équerre, and Papineau, he reportedly combed every centimeter of woodland beneath the destination’s magnificent forest canopy. His quest, interrupted here and there by the discovery of abundant flora and diverse fauna, would have been most rewarding. Would he have eventually found his precious friend? That remains a mystery…
According to the story, the legendary sea dog is said to have sailed to new waters in search of hidden treasure and stumbled upon the Berge aux Quatre-Vents. Accompanied by our blond-haired reporter and his dog, the three of them set off on an adventure along the snow-covered beach and discovered an incredible spot for supervised swimming in the summer and a fantastic place for ice skating in the winter. Would they have dared to play hockey?
A renowned professor’s sensational invention is said to have triggered a series of disasters in Laval: the entire city was reportedly covered in snow! Fortunately, thanks to one of their brilliant ideas, our hero and his four-legged companion would still have been able to go shopping and have brunch in town if they’d felt like it. Comfortably seated on an urban snowmobile, they could have enjoyed a 60-kilometer adventure along Laval’s marked trails.
