I got a screaming HOT deal on a room here (over labor day weekend, believe it or not)!  That's the only reason why I was able to afford staying here on my otherwise quite "budget" solo vacation to Canada.  

The hotel has been recently remodeled...…More »

J'adore le Bateau-Mouche...

I did the 90 minute late morning tour of the St. Laurent river.  With my student discount it was about $25.

The upper level was full when I arrived, so I went to the enclosed lower level.  The view was just as good as the…More »

Nice venue!  I saw Celine Dion here and there's nothing quite like 22,000 crazy Quebecois who love their native girl.  

Despite the massive volume of people at the event, the crowd flowed smoothly and there wasn't much of a backup anywhere.  Found my…More »

The Biodome was worth going to, though I didn't spend too much time here.  You can see the whole thing in about 30-40 minutes.  I wouldn't say it was a highlight of my trip to Montreal, but it was something relatively fun and entertaining to see, for…More »

For what it was, it was a fun side stop on one of my afternoons in Toronto.  

My two highlights?
Gerri Halliwell's tall British flag platform shoes
Elvis' shoes

Spent about an hour here.  The layout of the museum was a little strange, I wasn't quite sure…More »

I'm glad that when planning my trip I decided to do the "budget" accommodations first, then the 4 star luxury hotel, otherwise I probably wouldn't have been too thrilled.

This place needs to be fixed up, and I think if a few relatively cheap things…More »
