Knowing I will grab any excuse to get out of town/roadtrip, a few weeks ago my friend Seth suggested we go to Montreal for Labor Day Weekend (this is after we tossed around Dollywood, Iceland, a NorthEast Cruise, etc...). Montreal seemed to best fit our time frame and budget and we prepared for a fun filled weekend away.
For anyone that does not know Seth, you should know that he does not do anything half way. For example, if I were planning the trip, we would have had a Ford Focus and stayed in a Marriot or something equally boring. Not Seth...
He pulled up at my office Friday afternoon in a gorgeous convertible with a speciality mix playlist (Dance Diva Vocals) blasting. This was the first of many planned surprises.
We stayed at this amazing Bed and Breakfast in Old Town Montreal. It was STUNNING! The ceilings were 20 feet high and located next door to Notre Dame Cathedral.
We enjoyed Montreal's Olympic Village, shopping in the big Homo district, sidewalk cafe dinners, and a lot of walking and exploring.
We had big plans to go out dancing one night, but by the end of each evening, we were so exhausted, we just went back to the hotel and chilled.
Even without hitting the clubs, we both agreed it was a weekend well spent.
