Day 1~
As I was waking up in my hotel bedroom (Le St. Martin Hotel) I was hoping to look out my bedroom window to see my neighbours but instead I got to see a beautiful city. My mommy already ordered our breakfast from room service my mom ordered pancakes with strawberries, and French toast. After our breakfast we all headed out for our tour of Montreal, we are taking our tour with the ‘’Montreal City Guided Sightseeing Tour’’ the tour is 3 hours long and it departs at 10:00am sharp. It was hard waking up at 9:00am to get everything ready for the tour, once we arrived at the tour place they all loaded us on the tour bus. The tour was amazing we got to see lots of the old styled buildings, it took us to down town Montreal, and they even let us got off to go buy some souvenirs. Once me and my family got back to the hotel and put our stuff away we had lunch in the hotel, after we ate it was already 1:30pm and my mommy and I wanted to find a museum with some of Montreal’s fine art. So my mom and I headed down to the hotel lobby and asked the front desk people ‘’where is the best museum in Montreal that show cases art’’? The front desk people said that the best and largest art museum in Montreal to go to is the ‘’Montreal Museum of Fine Arts’‘. After asking where’s the museum my family and I headed to the location of the museum. Once we arrived we went inside and looked around for a while, there were lots of beautiful pieces of art (paintings and sculptures and modern art). We stayed at the museum for ever, the museum was very big and we did not really get a chance to take a look at everything. By the time we left the museum and drove back to the hotel it was 6:00pm, we decided not to eat in tonight so we looked up a nice restaurant to go to. The one that we found was the ‘’ Rib’N Reef Steakhouse ‘’, the steaks were so delicious, juicy, thick they were to die for. I have never had any kind of steak like this, there were many different flavours that you chose from. After our dinner and got back to the hotel we started to head to bed, I can’t wait for tomorrow !
Day2~
It’s my second day in Montreal, my sister and I happened to wake up at 12:20pm. I asked my parents why they didn’t wake us up? They said that they wanted us to get lots of rest before they took us for our surprise, we asked what the surprise. My parents took us to a D. Johnson's Antique store, D. Johnson's Antiques is located just ½ mile north of the city of Cornwall, Ontario, Canada on Hwy 138. When we arrived my family and I seperated from each other to look around and to find antiques that we might want to bring home. When I was looking around I found some stachuse that looked like elephants, horses, and some that looked like the greek gods. My mom and dad didn't let me and my sister buy anything, but they bought a bedside table and two small lamps. My parents said it's time to go so we can start eatig our picnic that my mommy packed. It took us and hour to drive to our destination and we arrived there at 2:30pm. We had left over steaks, and she also packed carrots, cucumber, salad, and peanut butter sandwhiches. After our picnic we packed up and started to drive back to the hotel before night falls, we got back around 4:30pm. We had to start packing for our next city if we wanted to make there on time, we left the hotel at 5:00pm and headed out on the road. I can't wait for the next city!
