Montreal

The trip was smooth sailing or driving as the case may be.  It just got a bit weird when I noticed a car that was following me like glue.  No kidding, whenever I sped up they sped up and when I slowed right down to let them pass they slowed down and stayed behind me.  It was getting quite freaky at one point.  This went on for about 50km right into Montreal where thankfully we lost them.

We had no idea where we were going and although I had GPS and new where I was, you kinda need a destination for it to be useful.  We drove around oggling the architecture and demographics of this very old city.  Interestingly seems there is more English in Montreal than we have in Ottawa, just saying.

We had lunch at Prato Pizzeria Cafe which turned out to be very tasty and then had a shopping excursion up and down St Laurent checking out the quaint little shops.

The trip with the girls ended when I dropped them at McGill.  The rest of the journey was my finding my way out of Montreal.  The GPS was fantastic for this.  Was able to take some residential streets to miss a lot of the rush hour traffic but still took an hour to get out of Montreal.  Smooth sailing home to arrive just at dusk. Perfect.
