Parking Non

French Canada

We left Vermont on the 25th and headed up to meet another Cayman friend in Montreal.  She was coming from Toronto and we both managed to park our cars on the street on the one specific hour out of the one specific day of the week where parking is prohibited due to street cleaning.  One would say, “What are the chances?” but really, it was inevitable.

After a lovely night of searching up and down Avenue du Mont-Royal E, we feasted at Le Sieur D’Iberville which included, of course, poutine…

Not the best, but not the worst we’ve had.  The burgers were okay as well.  A little later that evening, we had cocktails at La Distillerie where I experienced a Flyé coffee on tap… Fermented coffee.  Delicious.

There were other wonders to behold in old Montreal, mostly food and drink related.

And some not…

It’s happening…

Before I go on a trip I have these thoughts; these ideas really.  These ideas of what it will be like in another country or in a different situation.  Like “Next week I’m going to Italy… I wonder what I’ll be doing in Florence…”

And then this happens:

So I can only imagine what the scenes are gonna be like in SoKo.
