Montreal Part Two

Thought I'd give you a little intermission:



What a cutie - they say Montreal is the fashionable province of Canada!
We saw this little one whilst hopping in the car to check out St Joseph's Oratory.
It is located on the hill that IS Mont Real (Mount Royal...sorry, can't do the accents on this blog thing). It's the most visited shrine or something like that, and also has a huge modern chapel.





It's so big, it has ESCALATORS!!






The view from Mont Real (well, one of them!):



That's all we had time for in Montreal. I'd like to go back at some point and stay a few days, walk around and *really* see the city.

Al's trip went ahead and he arrived Saturday night so we went to a diner at midnight for a bite to eat :-) Next up: Sugar shack aka where they make the maple syrup :-D
