Merci Montreal!

It was our first time in Montreal and it met our high expectations. Now how often does that happen to a jaded New Yorker?? Not often and for that, merci Montreal.

F walking! Airport shuttle it!

Sans Menu on the Western side of Montr�al was just right - good food, wine and great laid-back atmosphere:

OMG where did you find that suitcase?
Montreal looks wonderful. I had never thought it could be this beautiful. But then again, your pictures are always nice.

BTW, that funky architecture is called Habitat '67. The modular multi-family dwellings were designed by Moshe Safdie.
