Tom: Overlooking Montreal there is a large 3 "peaked" hill called Mount Royal, which the clever people in wiki-land inform us gave the city it's name. So having been promised a postcard view we headed for the hills. Much sweat and even more grunts later we'd climbed to 2 of the 3 "summits" and the views were amazing, with panoramic views across Montreal and the surrounding countryside. After a pause at the top to enjoy the view we decided to visit the cross on another of the hills peaks that can be seen illuminated at night from all around Montreal, however as the trees obstructed the view it you can make do with an arty photo brought to you by Gingersnaps Inc.
After returning to the hostel for a most excellent chilli it was time to go out into a wet Montreal evening to take some photos of the city at night.
