The apartment was very comfortable to sleep in and the facilities reliable and easy to use.

It was going to be another warm day.

I would like to note that I do not know what Canadian dollars look like because everything is paid for by phone. Here is a graphic!

We tried to walk up to the Chalet but the heat and steady incline got the better of me … so down we went to the main shopping streets of Montreal

All the signs are in French… no English translation but everyone can switch to English!!! We found the Timeout food hall and stopped for a beverage and a rest in the cool. Michele and I first found one of these food halls in Lisbon last year.

Some shopping and more shopping before we decided that today’s lunch will be a Big Mac… the shrinkage is real everywhere!

Onward we wandered some more and then decided to drop our purchases back to the apartment.

Our next destination was up Saint Laurenc to find the Schwartz Deli. Our host explained that you can join the queue to choose what you want or go to the take away next store and order a sandwich and pickle and eat it there. We don’t queue!

Strolling along we found Rue Saint Denis which is a cosmopolitan street with many artistic outlets and small cafes and bars. It is a very vibrant and colourful area.

This led us to the Mount Royale district which was also very eclectic and steeped in local culture.

After completing over 17,000 steps we decided to catch an Uber back to the apartment.

To top up some needed supplies we then walked to the local Provigo, stocked up and made our way home for the night!

We were happy to see that they had Clomato mix and Caesar salt for the rim. Which is how we finished the evening.

Bonne Nuit
