DAY 17 - MONTREAL


We are staying in a very friendly park - in fact I must say that everyone we have met in Montreal is super friendly.   That includes people in the service industry and just generally people that we have spoken to.    Today started off with Bob & I receiving lovely anniversary cards from our travelling companions and then off for a visit to the Olympic Stadium.   An interesting stop - but my oh my what a hot day it was today - 35 degrees and extremely muggy.  Reminded me of Sochi in Russia!   After that us girls went to the Bay (mostly to take advantage of the air-conditioning)...however we did do some nice shopping at one of the ladies stores in the Mall.   The guys took a tour of the Bell Centre as well as the museum of the Montreal Canadians and their Hall of Fame.  Don W. said this was the highlight of the trip for him so far.    Went to Old Montreal for dinner - and all of us left for 'home' agreeing Montreal was a very beautiful and friendly city.
