Day 31 Montreal, Canada

Not good news when we woke up. Rain was forecast for most of the day and it was pissing down. Simon and I dodged the rain and ran down to the nearest metro station and headed down to the casino so he could try and win some money to fund the Jill Frew Hair Dye Foundation (ask if you want details). And also to get more casino chips to add to his fetish of collecting casino chips from all over the world. By the time we got at around 4pm it was still raining and I was hoping I could still meet Tina that night although the day was totally destroyed really because of the weather. I knew that 2 nights in Montreal was never going to be enough, and I wished we were staying here longer. But things did eventually get better after I rang Tina and we arranged to meet at 9.30pm, and thankfully the rain had stopped. All four of us (Tina,Jill,Simon and I) had a drink in the hotel bar and while Simon and Jill went off to a restaurant Tina took me around some parts of Montreal I hadn’t seen yet. What I will say though is I didn’t expect her to walk me thousands and thousands of miles and worst of all corrupt my mind by showing and telling me where the best strip joints are in Montreal (although I think somebody must of told her that because she is sooooooooooo angelic and innocent). Luckily for me I was able to see a lot more of Montreal thanks to her and I had a very enjoyable night/early morning after getting back at 3.45am, but then what better way to spend the early hours of my birthday than with a lovely lady. Walking back to the hotel I was still thinking about how I wished we had another few nights here and it would have been great getting the chance to go kayaking and to the beach thanks to Tina’s invite and meeting her boyfriend and other friends. I guess eventually after crossing nearly all of Canada without getting the feeling we hadn’t stayed somewhere too long or not enough yet it was going to happen one day. Tina you did warn me that 2 nights wasn’t enough and you were right although I did say before we got here that I didn’t think it was as well but the others only planned 2 nights and that was it.
