Fall Foliage....

In Florida, we only have two seasons....summer and January.    So we get excited about an opportunity to experience fall foliage.      We booked this cruise several months ago - Montreal to Miami.    We will board the ship later today and set sail this evening.

We flew to Montreal a couple of days early to enjoy the city.   Unfortunately the first day was spent in airports after cancelled flights and being rerouted - but we arrived safely.   
The view from our hotel was beautiful - exactly the color I had hoped we would see!  We walked through a spectacular Basilica that was nearby.   It's hard to imagine the work that went into creating this place of worship.   I could sit inside for hours just taking it all in...






The day was cool and very windy, but that didn't stop our walking tour.   Montreal has a complete underground city that includes restaurants, shopping malls and even a train station.   I found a wonderful creperie for lunch and plenty of window shopping to keep us busy.


Hoping we will have good internet service so I can update the blog as we continue our journey!
