Day 93: Montreal (Rest day)

Being in a hostel, it is almost impossible to sleep in. Doors slamming and people coming and going made for an early start today.

I would be meeting Matt, Amy and Stephen for lunch today, at Schwarz's Deli, but before that happened I needed to do a bit of exploring on foot.

Schwarz's is an institution in Montreal, and when I arrived the queue was already out of the door and winding its way up the sidewalk. They served smoked meat sandwiches. And that is it!

They were amazing, so I bought 2.

After lunch we walked down into the Old Town, grabbed another first, a DQ Blizzard, then parted ways. Matt and Amy were staying in NE Montreal so had a little bit of a bike ride ahead of them. 

I walked back to the hostel and had an afternoon nap.

This evening there was a pub crawl, organised by the hostel, that took us through the city, visiting a local micro-brewery and 2 other regular bars, the last of which had a skateboard park in the middle of it, and a ceiling covered in dangling bras!

Interesting indeed.
