Tomorrow's 5½ Hour Flight

We arrived in Vancouver in the summer of 1996. I do not think Jay and I boarded an airplane the following year. However, we had two trips in 1998. That spring we went to Honolulu, HI and in November we took a charter flight to Montreal, Quebec. The latter was our first taste of 'back east' as we took time to visit Quebec City and our nation's capital too.

Additionally, we spent time in The City of Saints on a cross-country road trip to Newfoundland and back. That sojourn occurred during summertime four years later. So other than a few stopovers in the Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport, we find we've not spent enough time in Montreal in years!


We had to bundle up in 1998.
It felt as though it was time to return and spend a week. We have chosen an Airbnb near La Fountaine Park and booked it until August 21st starting from tomorrow. The timing is perfect as their Pride Parade will be taking place during this weekend of the Fierté Montréal.

Time to pack a few things now, but just into backpacks so it shouldn't take long. (Screw your $30 baggage fees, WestJet!) Our flight will leave Vancouver at 9:00 AM.
