Bromont and Montreal, Quebec 14-19 Oct
Dear Friends and Family –
We have been in Quebec Province for five days and have had pretty much constant rain. We spent the weekend near Bromont, a small town about an hour east of Montreal in the beautiful condo of Richard and Laurence Pinsonnault, who we met on the Web and with whom we are doing a house exchange. (They will stay at our house in California in December). Because of the rain we only did a little touring in the area, where we went driving, antiquing and visited some nice restaurants. We also spent time sitting in front of the fireplace reading.
On Monday we drove to Montreal and have been staying in a very nice hotel suite that the Pinsonnault's also own in Old Montreal. The first day we took a three-hour Gray Line Bus tour to get an overview of the city. Yesterday we went walking through Old Montreal, to a museum about the history of the city, walked around the city and took the Metro subway to some shopping areas. Today Dahlia visited art museums while Lance stayed home and read. Montreal has been an interesting place but the rainy weather has put a damper on things.
Tomorrow we plan to drive to Quebec City and Friday we start back through New England, making our way to NYC on Monday.
- Cheers, Lance and Dahlia

It's hard to believe you're already come to the end of your trip - time keeps on ticking, ticking, ticking. Looking forward to seeing you guys next Friday in Baltimore.
