September 4
Today was a city-walking day. And, it was hot. We walked just shy of 5 miles. The temperature started out cool enough as we started early and there was a breeze. But, by mid-day, it was about 80 degrees, which was challenging.
We took the Metro to Old Town where we basically walked and window-shopped. Of course, we stopped for coffee and split a croissant.
We decided to take the Metro one more stop as we thought we'd go in the historic bank, but never found it and then got a bit muddled on directions to walk. Eventually, we figured it out and decided to walk over a mile to Sherbrooke and pick up a bus. About mid-way, we stopped for lunch. (burger, salad) Afterwards, we persevered and go to Sherbrooke where there was no shade as we walked to find a bus stop - which we found. We took the bus back to St Denis and then walked to find Vielle Europe Market because we wanted cheese, baguette, sausage and pate for evening dinner in our room. We stopped for another coffee en route to cool down. Then- walked back.
