Day42: In Montreal
We began our Sunday in Montreal by having brunch at L'Avenue. Tamara had eggs benedict, and I had a crepe with cottage cheese & apples. The eggs benedict was wonderful, and my crepe wasn't terrible, either. We apparently got there right before the queue began- when we left, it was about 25 people deep on the street.
We then walked around the corner to the Ulysses travel bookstore, where we picked up a guidebook for Toronto.

Our next stop was Old Montreal. We took the subway over there, then wandered a while, looking at the buildings and taking pictures. Tamara really likes the old stone buildings that are stained green from the copper roofs.

We saw another couple getting married. Well, they weren't actually getting married, but the photographers were taking artsy pictures of them against a pretty wall and lamppost. I thought it made a neat little moment, so I took some pictures.

Dinner was at a Mexican restaurant, then we had some crepes from a nearby shop. Tamara had a crepe covered with incredibly good milk chocolate. It was so rich that she couldn't finish it!
