Arrived in the Montreal greyhound station at 12:30 this afternoon. We dropped our bags off at the hostel and after a snack at a deli in the next street, we navigated the Metro (underground rail system) to the Olympic Stadium that hosted the 1976 Olypmics!
Back in hostel now after finding an IGA supermarché. Speaking French here is not compulsory, but it shows willing. Asking questions en francais is no so much of a problem. It is deciphering the other persons answer that is the tricky part. "When in Rome..." eh?
Not Montreal, but Quebec City is more of a die hard French area, hence not visited... yet!
