Hotel 7 Saisons Montreal

So I haven't actually flown out yet, but I'm planning to.. In 9 hours. I just wanted to get my fans pumped up to read more about my adventures.

It's snowing a lot outside (in GFPK). I foresee a nice 1.5 hour bus ride from downtown Montreal to PET airport.

Salut.

São 5 horas da manhã em Montreal. Ontem eu comprei um rádio-relógio pra ver se, junto com o alarme do meu celular, eu consigo me acordar e ir à aula, que começa às 8:30. O pior de ter insônia é tentar dormir. Acho que o insone profissional não fica tentando dormir, como eu fiquei até às 3 da manhã. Ele deve arrumar um monte de coisa pra fazer. Coisas produtivas. Eu escolhi assistir a um filme. My Life In Ruins, com Nia Vardalos ...

There is a mighty river flowing from a great inland sea. Half way down the river is an isle with a mountain in the middle. Around the mountain is a city. First people called it Ville Marie. We called it Montreal in Middle French

In the center of the city is a plaza where Iroquois defended themselves against whites. Now the place is taken by a bank. Both sides lost.

Around the plaza were the cobblestone streets with the stores closed ...

... soup in the restaurant’s outside tent - a bit cool but just don’t want to be indoors quite yet - there’ll be enough of that in the coming months.

Returned home after several hours of cycling feeling great. Dove into supper preparations making a chicken dish with apple crumble for dessert. When Betty & Bert arrived home from work, we had a good meal and visit. Settled to bed early for further exploration of Montreal tomorrow.

... time and was very uneventful. I immediately took some melatonin and tried to sleep. I had been up since 4:30 AM Calgary time and really wanted to be well rested when we landed at 9:00 AM Paris time. It was a good idea but unfortunately not realized. I got a few hours of sleep but not nearly enough. I woke up for good halfway across the atlantic and spent the rest of the flight watching TV and listening to music.

... there are probably 25 different highways surrounding the city and there are a lot of big buildings, there was no reason why I couldn't just do the things I wanted to do, and avoid the new part. I am still in shock writing this, that I did all of this stuff in the matter of only a few hours and still made it to Levis, Quebec at a decent hour. I had a fun day but was tired of french Canada and was not even in Quebec City, which may sound a bit weird. When I went to ...

... around the city speaks French all the time and it’s really quite surprising to hear such a language spoken in a place like North America.

We spend about four days in Montreal. By this point in the journey our budget is shrinking and we are tiring a little, so from Montreal to Toronto I admit we’re a little less inspired to pack the days full of activity.

The hostel we stay at is fantastic, specifically because we get our own private ...

... plan, I will let you all know what that is. For the time being, suffice it to say we will being doing the following: - Pyramids of Giza - Cairo - Valley of the Kings - Luxor - Aswan and Abu Simbel (temple of Ramses) - Overnight trek in the White Desert - Alexandria - Sunrise atop Mount Sinai - R & R in the Southern ...

I love Montreal. In my mind you can't pick a better place to party. Beautiful women, top notch bar service, French Canadian Theatre... what more could you want. Granted I could use a new liver by this point, but I was going to make due. That week I had a couple nights off to rest and recoup before the team doctors gave me the go ahead for bday celebrations. The ...
