In Montreal, Quebec, Canada

Our 4th night out on this 17 day trip to Canada.  Last night we were in Watertown, NY and tonight we are in downtown Montreal, Quebec.  Am told this is a city of just under 2 million people and many of them were on the highway tonight as we came into town just after 5 pm.

This morning we did a boat tour on St. Lawrence River and walked through a castle/home on one of the 1,000 islands.  Found that 1,000 Island Dressing came from a man who managed the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York and had a summer home in the 1,000 Island area and he named a dressing in his hotel restaurants for that area.

Am tired tonight and won't try to post any photos or go into detail.

Will write more later.
