Sonic... can you beat him?

Ah. Montreal. I pretty much know the city center by heart now, the same for the old port, the walks along the river, Saint Urbain and Saint Laurent and to some extent Saint Denis. I had some major revelations to write but now they're gone from my head. So much for that. From what I've seen in the past week, the best time to hang around the city is when the sun starts going down. It makes all those really tall buildings look much better.

Chinatown. I'm kind of addicted to the sweet bread from one of the bakeries there. I'm not quite sure why but these shoes highly amused me. The lady wearing them was well in her 50s and she was talking with a friend of hers of how much she spends on her hair. CAD$110 each time at the hair dresser's! Perhaps the best part about where I'm staying is that it's close to Place des Arts. Even though Ste. Catherine is all dug up right next to it, it's still a lovely place to hang out.

Yep, still doing rather well. Nothing much going on besides having to start my year at the French uni-equivalent. I still don't even know what I'm supposed to be teaching :D
