Being a tourist means you don't get to see everything, but we dd get to a few good places today.
First was Atwater Market.
It was a little far to walk so we took a ten dollar taxi ride.
I thought the market was wonderful. Lots of beautiful veggies and fruits, some totally new to me, flowers, meats, cheeses and gorgeous French-style breads. A deli, coffees, etc.
Then another taxi dropped us off at Notre Dame, close to the Old Port of Montreal. It was pretty cool but we did not spend much time there. Instead we walked the couple of blocks to Chinatown. We walked down the hill and through the big red gate (paifang) and were immediately transported to another place and time. We walked and watched and stopped at one place for some delicious dumplings.
Here are pix from both places.
