2013 Montréal Take Over, Day 5

The last full day of my visit and the (almost) primary reason for coming to Montreal, the Wings of Metal Market Event. This day, like the entire trip, had its ups and downs, as well as many more surprise discoveries.

The day was incredibly clear and crisp, and this was a good way to start the day.

2013 Montréal Take Over, Day 3

In all my travels, I have found Montreal to be one of the most convenient cities to get around thanks to its Metro (subway system). It's always a challenge to get around a city when visiting for the first time, and the worst part is that one mistake can throw things into a disarray (like my 2nd day with the whole bus debacle). After recalibrating my senses and itinerary, I took the Metro to the next chapter of my journey, the Biodome (don't think this is going to be a reenactment of the film of the same name).

2013 Montréal Take Over, Day 2

Day 2, and my first full day in Montréal. Waking up in a city never before visited has a tendency to throw someone off as the unexpected of what lays ahead gives a person plenty of surprises, but for some reason, this city feels like I have been here before, considering the architecture of the buildings, the roads, the cars, even the people for that matter. This was very weird.

The first part of the day was all about visiting a museum that packed a "bite" of an exhibit, but before getting there, a unusual vehicle was awaiting some passengers to take from dry to wet in 2 shakes of a second. Unfortunately, couldn't get on as it would have taken precious time away from today's planned adventure (something else came along that did that, more on it later).
