A Touch of Quebecois

My first authentic Quebecois experience? A frosty kiss from a negative-two windchill as we alighted from the bus at 5 am. I was uber-excited to be part of the first backpacking for my sister's 2 kids -- and I was more than happy to play the part of the fun crazy aunt. =) In a day, we were able to roam around Old Montreal, play at the Montreal Science Centre, unfurl the maze of Montreal's Underground City, and bump into Occupy Montreal while we were at it. For the whole account and for more pics, you can check out the memoir over here: http://ishg.wordpress.com/2011/10/29/a-day-trip-to-montreal
