On Friday we walked Rue Saint Catherine exploring some of Underground Montreal. Dinner found us at the Hard Rock Cafe on Rue Crescent adding to our beer and martini glass collection. After dinner we dropped in to a local pub aptly named "Ziggy's" sitting outside watching the street spectacle stroll by and eavesdropping on multilingual conversations. Montreal is more than a Anglo/Franco melting pot, it's international.
Saturday found us with a few hours to spend strolling around Old Montreal taking in the sites. Below is view of Lord Nelson's monument at the Place Jacques-Cartier.
On our drive south to Burlington we discovered Quebec's wine country and with it we probably discovered why it is so unknown.
The only saving grace was the quaintness of the wineries and the fall foliage.

Very cool pics. We (Sunil, Laura, Mike Toy) tried to call you, but then we figured I had no Mic so we could speak to you. We wanted to know how your trip was going. Sunil says you left quite abruptly. He didn't know where you guys were headed off to. So I gave him the skinny on your trip. Have a couple of brewski's for me.
See ya next week. Helpdesk Laura
