On Saturday Darryl
and I took the Metro into the city. We picked up our rail tickets and
then made our way to the Jean Talon Markets. Walking out of the Metro
we turned the wrong way so also had a look at St Hubert, where there
were lots of Wedding, Formal Dress and Shoe shops. The Jean Talon
Markets are a large fresh food market, with fruits and vegetables,
cheese, seafood, flowers & meats. Shane joined us and we had
lunch before heading
to the Festivals. We watched some performances at the African
Festival. Darryl seemed to enjoy it even thought he slept (he had
been woken by some returning party-goers in the early hours and not
been able to get back to sleep). I thought the first band was
terrible, the second and third weren't too bad, although the music
seemed more Latino than African. Shane got bored so went home early.
Eventually we moved on to the Montreal Comedy Festival precinct, and
got some freebies, watched 'Just for Laughs', and other street games and performers, before going home too.
