Tuesday 7/23 (Day 10)- Day 2a (eh?)

A shot of really thick maple syrup candy at the market

     Day two in Montreal was more of checking out the town. Forgot to mention that we walked through Mcgill's campus yesterday. Today, we drove up to the top of Mt. Royal Park to check out the view. Did a little hike up there too. Next up was a market, kind of like a farmer's market with some non-local stuff too. Lunch was downtown at a Lebanese place for a Shawarma chicken wrap. Evidently Montreal has a large Lebanese population too. On the way back, we walked through the casino just to do it I guess. No gambling though.
     Hit up another run along the water front and the islands just off of downtown. Dinner was Poutine! Very dirty and awesome. Afterward, we hit up a bunch of bars in the downtown. The Distillery did huge cocktails in mason jars. I had a mojito and some milk and maple based one. When in Rome.
     There is also the international comedy fest going on in Montreal right now, so we got $20 "mystery" tickets to the 12 AM show. You don't have any idea who will be on stage. We had a good mix of 8 comedians or so, the largest name being Jess Ross from comedian central's "roasts". Other than one guy, it was a great show.

Day High: The first Poutine experience. Everything I could ever want it to be.
Day Low: Humid as hell on the run.
