I went to Montreal with Laura on Friday (16/5) and got back yesterday night (monday,19/5) we got back a day earlier. We were planning to go back to Ottawa today (tuesday, 20/5) because it was raining and we didn't want to stay in our room the whole night so we decided to go back a day earlier. We had so much fun!!

Day 1

Friday, 16/5/08

We reached Montreal @ around 1230pm, check into our hotel and we were pretty dissapointed. We booked it online and it look kinda nice but when we got it was not what we expected, its small and has this dusty kinda a smell. I didn't wanna complain much but Laura was kinda mad about it. And the room is ard US$80/night its kinda expensive for a small room.

It looks kinda nice from this picture.

After checking into the hotel we walked around Ste Catherine Street, it has lotsa stuff there, its like Orchard Rd. There is a lot of people there. And the first thing i bought there is this pretty red dress @ Lucky Brand Jeans, its a US brand.





Than we went for sushi along ste catherine st, and we went back to our room to put our new clothes and than we went for drinks on Cresent st at this bar/resto called Sir Winston Churchill Pub. We stayed there till 10pm. Than went back to our room.



Day 2:

Woke up @ 830pm, we went for breakfast @ Cora's (a breakfast place). I had egg omlette with mushroom & cheese. It was kinda blend and it was serve with toast and potatoes.

After breakfast we went to the Biodome, its like a habitat in a dome. There's the forest section and when you go in you can feel the humidity of it. It has all this animals from the forest like, crocodiles, birds, monkeys and some other animals. Than there's the Aquarium section, where all kind of fish. There's the Artic section, there were penguins and some other artic fish.








Than we went to the Botanical Gardens cause we bought the tickets with the botanical garden, biodome and insectarium. The insectarium was so gross!! There is a lot of ANTS and some other BUGS!!! The botanical garden is beautiful!








Than we went to old montreal. The streets is really cool! You gotta be there to see it! Than around 5pm we went back to our room and around 8pm we went out for dinner at 930pm Ashley and her bf (rick) met up with us at the restaurant/bar. Than at 1230pm they went back and we stayed and party at the club in the bar. We left around 3am their clubs closed @ 3am. IT WAS A FUN NIGHT!!!




Day 3
Sunday, 18/5/08


We woke up ard 1015am we didn't sleep till 5am. Still tired from the night before but we still have places to see & go. So we got dressed quickly and left around 1110am, went to Cora's again but it was full so we had croissants for breakfast. We went to Notre Dame Chatredral, its so big and grand. I was pretty tired so i wasnt in a good mood that day. And we didn't take much photos that day too.








Notre Dame





Art Museum

Than we went to Old Montreal again had our coffee at Starbucks and just chill at the park. Than we deceided to go to the Art Gallery. Its okay but i not an art fan so its okay to me. By this time we don't know what else to do so we just went back to our room and had a nap. When we woke up it was already 7pm. We wanted to go out but it started raining so we went back to our room and ordered pizza, it wasn't that great. We thought the club there closed on sunday and we didnt check the receptionist, so we just stayed in that room. We slept early.




Day 4
Monday, (19/05/08)

We woke up early and had breakfast at Cora's, i had crepe with fruits and nutella spread, its so good! Than we went for our last shopping spree in Montreal. I bought more stuff from Lucky Brand Jeans. A designer bag from Montreal (thats the expensive item that i bought in Montreal). Than when we went out of the mall it started to raining heavily. So we sat at Second Cup (like Coffee bean) and we decieded to go back a day earlier.





We took the 6pm train from Montreal to Ottawa, we reached Ottawa around 815pm. Took a cab back from the train station. Reached the house around 850pm. Rosa came by (vernettes friend) we chill for awhile and than at 11 pm we took a drive to Parliament Hill and walk around the Parliament. It was a nice cold night, we had a nice walk/drive.
