A Weekend in Montréal!

Last weekend, some friends and I dared the border crossing and ventured into beautiful Montréal Canada.  It was a very easy 4 1/2 hour drive, and was an incredible weekend. I have been to Montréal before, but it is a totally different experience when you are a seemingly more independent twenty-year-old.  

We only stayed two nights -- but it was a wonderful time. We found the perfectly convenient (and cheap) Days Inn in downtown Montréal.  It was so close to restaurants, bars, the old historical side, and the financial district. 

 We're almost there! AND, the signs are in French!

We were also able to see the Olympic Stadium, the Montréal Biodome and some of the fantastic Canadian night life.  Overall, escaping Syracuse for the weekend was well-worth the money exchange and the cold winter air. And, it is never bad to share some company with good friends.
