Montreal


I was back in Montreal for my last few days in Canada and for the cities and towns I’ve seen, it’s my favourite. Maybe it’s the European vibe or just that it’s a big city with lots to do in it..

On my first night I had to brave both the subway and bus to go out to Lachine and meet with a friend who I’ve known for 10 years but never met and it was great to finally meet her and see some of the sites of Lachine.

Let the adventure begin

Yesterday I flew from London Heathrow to Montreal Trudeau, for the start of my year of adventures. Luckily I was flying from Terminal 5 which is still shiny and new, so has the better shops and facilities. The shops were useful as I’d left my sunglasses case in the car and the facilities were good, so I could sup a glass or two of Champagne before the flight - well the luxury of the trip began and ended there!
