Saturday
Montreal, last night, post-posting:
I rode the Metro! I must confess that it was my first time riding a subway, and it was awesome! Just sitting in the tunnel, there's this predominant WHUD that is reminiscent of the bass you hear outside loud clubs. Then, when the train arrives, it comes screaming into the station, just like the ghost train from Ghostbusters! Tres cool.

I love June. Just walking around last night, being comfortable sans jacket was awesome. I ended up checking into a Days Inn just west of downtown (at 150 a night! Yikes!) and just kind of collapsed.

Montreal, this morning:

Traffic lights in Montreal are odd. For one, they don't span over the street, and for another, they rarely have pedestrian crossing lights. Odd thing to bring up, I know, but that's what popped into my head while checking out today.

I am currently at a sidewalk cafe-type place called Mangia on Peel and Maisonneuve. Very good fruit salad, and they brew a tasty cup of coffee. I have just come from on top of the mountain (Mount Royal, for those unaware) and I must say that it is supremely neat to be in a city that has a forested mountain in its backyard.

Now, I believe that I shall be off to take more pictures of... stuff. And things.

Later this morning:

I just saw a man playing 3 recorders at once. One was in his mouth, and one was in each nostril. I must add that he was making some pretty cool music.
