First Impressions
... the venue first. Despite the walk to the hostel, this was my first time out in Montreal, mostly, I could see run down shops and dodgy meat vendors, then at the end of the street I stopped to try and read a sign in the bright sun and a lady ran over my foot with her pram and proceeded to shout at me in French.
