Quebec to Montreal

Quick goodbye to the river….or so we thought and then on the train.
Thought you might find this amusing   on the track through the Plains of Abraham.Did you know that the dirt area that becomes an ice fishing activity in winter ( remember that one) , it is an underground reservoir. It also used to be the site of an armaments factory. This was converted into homes during the depression and became known as the Village of Poverty or Misery. The washing line is suppose to remind people of that time.  

Well it’s train time….comfortable seats…. relax…………take in the scenery…….remember…..   

   
As you can see the scenery was beautiful. The countryside is agricultural and punctuated by the Laurence river and its tributaries. I’m sure we crossed the StLaurence at least twice. Now collect the luggage ( they have a carousel system similar to the  airport) and grab a taxi. What were your first impressions of the city? I thought it appears to be a very busy city of skyscrapers, cars  and construction work…….we will see tomorrow when we head out to explore it. Let’s start early 8.00am suit?
