Its good to Know that my years study of Spanish is to come in to some use. But not today, today im in France, and what French i do remember is now mixed up with my Spanish lingo. I dont know if im saying hello, bonjour or hola now.

Montreal is also a great city to visit, so for my 2 day stop over before having a bit longer in Toronto should be enough

Shopping is tres bizzare non. the shopping center is 3-4 stories below the main shopping street, so if youre not careful youd miss it. The money ive spent so far id wish i had

The people are very frendly here and alot speak English as well as french (although all of the signs are in french). The good news is there are no mimes, looks like canadians dont like them either

So doing the usual with the recommendations of the UPS girl, i headed for the old town and waterside, where there is the usual statues, churches, bars.. Yadda Yadda Yadda... but very nice

Nighttime headed for the Rue up the road, with is littered with tiny bistros all the way down it and every style of food imaginable. Very pleasent but they all speak French. Commo Sa Va just dosent cut it in this town, and neither does Hey How You Doin.....

well you managed to forget Jasons birthday as well as mine - glad you've decided to treat us both the same. We decided to take time out of our ultra relaxing holiday to check up on your travels, it appears you are staying in the same quality hotels as we are only we took a suite case not a backpack. We are a little concerned about your use of foreign languages, remember the waiter you unwittingly propositioned in Cuba!!
Jason believes you will be out on the streets in your sleeping bag a lot sooner than China, Ive got faith in you mate. Be Careful & have fun, we're going for our sun set drinks now - with love from Phuket - Helen & Jase x

More shopping, where exactly are you storing all this stuff you're buying, i'm guessing your next purchase will be a bleedin big packing case to put it all in!!
Good luck with the French language by the way, the only bit i know is "Stella Artois sil vous plait" which i find can get you through most situations, oh and i also know most of the swear words but they're not so useful.
Anyway Bonjour for now Rodney.
