We took off and headed west to Montreal. We took Rt 138 instead of the highway so we'd have some scenery. It ran right along the river and was a very pretty drive.
By the time we arrived in Montreal the fog had burned off and it turned into an amazing day! We checked into the hotel and headed out on the Metro (subway) to visit the site of the 1976 Olympics.
The velodrome has been turned into a BioDome
From there we went to the Olympic Stadium which seats 80,000 and is used now for sporting events, concerts, etc.
It also has the tallest leaning tower
This is the BioDome in the foreground and the Tower in the background
We went up the tower and saw the whole village as well as a large portion of Montreal
We decided to sit down for a proper meal tonight. Found a place called BatonRouge that was amazing! I had the best BBQ Ribs, Chicken Tenders and Garlic Mashed Potatoes
So that's all from Montreal. Tomorrow morning we head for Kingston, Canada.
More tomorrow.....
Garlic mashed potatoes . . . Mmmmmmmm ☺
