Montreal

Last year, I moved to New Hampshire. A friend and I decided we needed to take advantage of international road trip opportunities, and we planned a Columbus Day weekend jaunt to Montreal.

We drove three hours to Burlington, Vt, where we stopped for lunch at a fabulous farm to table resteraunt. Then another 45 miles to the border, and another two hours or so to the city. 

We had a great time wandering around, stumbling through French, enjoying Canadian friendliness, and eating all the things.

Duck poutine. So good. 

Bicycles and graffiti were everywhere. 

We found a shop that just sold mushrooms. 

Old Montreal. Quite beautiful.
