RE: Montreal Meet Oct '09
I very much enjoyed the Montreal Meet, though not able to join the fishing one...looks like it was fun. However MenthiX and me did have loads of fun too in our ongoing trip to Niagara falls via Toronto (no meets with others there, soz..lack of time etc.)

First night in Toronto was wet (was even on local news that it was unusaually wet, with trafic jams an all) so we stayed in mostly (Strathcona Hotel) and had an early night. Saturday we left by train for Niagara Falls at 8.30 so a good nights sleep was a good idea anyway.

Saturday, on we went to Niagara Falls. Arrived at 10:33. After dropping off our luggage at the Marriot Fallsview hotel (they stored it for us, as you can nog go into your room before 3 pm) we went out and took the scenic walk....long long walk it was. On the way we went on "Maid of the Mist" the lil boat that brings you real close to the falls, like in the smack middle of it. Was pretty impressive, after going through a wall of rain (mist) you get too the middle where above us we saw the sun come through the clouds. On we walked to Table Rock where the Welcome Center was...we decided not to walk long way round anymore to get to the hotel so we took the Incline Railway right up to where our Hotel was. In the evening we went for a lil stroll again then it was time  to get some sleep. On Sunday morning we did "Journey behind the Falls", yea yea more wetness and pictures of course, and managed to squeeze in a visit to the IMAX too to see the Niagara Falls movie. Then we had to catch our train again back to Toronto.

After checking into our Hotel (Radisson Admiral), located at the waterfront, we walked to CN Tower, which really was only like a 5 to 10 mins walk away from our hotel. We took the full package so we took "the ride", then upto the first viewing level by elevator that goes on outside of the tower with views outside :O. At the first viewing level outside part we ware caged in, so taking pictures was hard but hey we got some. Then to the glass floor, where you could see all the way down standing on glass tiles. Then we accidently took elevator down instead of up to the Skypod. Since we had to do Cinema too, last was at 20:30, we decided to do that first. Then we went back up, which they allowed after MenthiX explained we forgot Skypod and wanted to go upthere now (they didn't ask me..lol). After that we looked for some place to eat and that was it for the night really. Next morning our train went back to Montreal at 9:30, arriving at 14:30. There met up with Patchou again to go for something to eat at Old Montreal before he dropped us off at the airport.

Someone asked for lots of pics, so here they are (resized to 1024 now):
