St. Andre?...we belong in Montreal


Being in Montreal is such a relief. The apartment is amazing, literally in the middle of the city, everything is within walking distance. Our place is roomy, clean, comfortable, and affordable, we are feeling pretty lucky to land it. In fact i am feeling so lucky that i may even take a trip to the Casino in Montreal, i have always wanted to play the slots. Our apartment has a rooftop terrace, the view from above is amazing. I have been really enjoying Montreal, by far one of my favorite cities, i wish i knew french, though i suppose if i wanted to learn it Montreal would be the place to be. The city is trendy and safe, but has so many different options. Any type of restaurant, a subway system, a waterfront, Tons of Shopping, Old European Style, Modern Style, Museums, Diversity, Festivals, Islands, a Casino, Art Spots, Theme Parks, City Parks, etc, etc... Montreal is a fun city. 
I should have brought a Pedometer on this trip, i have walked 50 miles by now. 
The people have been very pleasant, most of them say my name better than i do. I look forward to my week here and plan on making it back sometime. Mom would love this place. 
Plus hanging out with Matt and Genevieve has been a blast. Last Night Matt and i had a late night craving and ate some hot dogs; "Toastie" Michigan style...I would be surprised if anyone knows what that means. I don't even think people from Michigan know about it.
