Hello everyone,
I have really been failing you haven't i? I was supposed to write about the rest of our Montreal trip last week but since i started back at work i have been very tired! So yah!
Anyway i will tell you about the rest of the trip now if you would like? Well actually i dont care if you want me to or not... i am going to anyways!
Day Three
On Saturday (Day 3) we spent the morning walking around, we went to visit Notre Dame and took a tour of it. It is so beautiful! And we learned a lot of cool facts about it and whatnot and it was really nice to see!
Then later on in the day we walked towards Mont-Royal, stopping for smoked meat at The Main (recommended to us) and when we got to the bottom of the mountain we got onto a bus and took the bus up to Maison Smith. Then around 6 pm we registered for our snow-shoeing tour and got all ready and put our snow shoes on and then with our group we snow shoed up the mountain. It was dark and the city was all lit up and its was beautiful! I was very glad to have the love of my life there with me.
Half way up the mountain we all stopped to have homemade chocolate truffles and mulled wine! It was so good! Then we continued on our journey to a lookout you can only get to by climbing the mountain. Its a view of almost the entire city and it was unbelievably beautiful!
When we got back to Maison Smith, a very nice lady who was on the tour with us told us she would give us a ride to the nearest subway which was so sweet of her and better for us because taking a cab or public transit would have cost money lol.
After we got dropped off, we stopped at a bagel bakery and had a yummy bagel (mine with peanut butter and Taylors with butter.) Then we headed back to the hotel and then went to the bar across the road to catch the end of the Montreal game. We had one drink there and then went to another bar near by and had another drink and then went back to the hotel and went to bed because it was slightly late and we were tired.
Day Four
On Sunday (Day 4) we went out for breakfast and then to the Montreal Biodome by metro. It was a lot of fun and we saw some really cool animals! I think we were there for about 2 hours and then we got back onto the metro and took it to near the hotel. Then we decided to walk up Rue Saint Laurent and we checked out some shops even though it was the coldest day ever! The wind was whipping against us no matter what direction we walked in and out faces were freezing off. Lucky for the shops to give us a short break from the nasty cold. We stopped at a pub and taylor had a beer and i had a water with lemon and we split a piece of baileys cheesecake which was good! Then after visiting a few more shops, we walked up to Schwartz (A tourist attraction restaurant for smoked meat) which was not nearly as good as The Main and not even in the same category as Reubens! And needless to say we got a little sick of smoked meat by this time... I think i am set for the next few years actually. lol. Also we ate so much in Montreal it was ridiculous! Delicious but too much!
Then i wanted to go swimming because our hotel had a pool that we had yet to use... so we went down to swim and found out that it was the coldest pool in existence! So i ended up going to sit in the sauna to warm myself and Taylor sat on the side of the pool to wait for me. Then we watched a bit of Myth Busters and then went to bed.
The next day i have a lot to tell you about so i will try and write about that later... i dont feel like writing any more today.
Love Always
