Missing the bus
From New York to Toronto in Montreal, Canada on Oct 07 '07

I`m sat in a cafe near the bus station. I just missed the 9am bus, so I have a few hours to kill. I stretched a coffee out for an hour while reading the paper (Montreal Gazette) now I'm internetting.
Highlights of Montreal: Took a walk up Mont Royal yesterday and communed with the squirrels. Nice views over the city and beyond to the very odd looking olympic stadium. Montreal feels a bit like Paris (what with the french speaking and all). People happy to switch to english once they recognise my appalling accent. Weather has been overcast the last few days (since I entered Canada in fact). Looking forward to getting out into the mountains.
