Last day in Montreal




This morning we had a breakfast of eggs and bastorma (beef cured in a thick crust of fenugreek and other spices). This reminded George and Platon of their youth in Egypt. After a teary goodbye, we left for Montreal to visit Derek, a friend and ex-colleague of Artemis. Derek was glad to see Artemis and the doggies. His apartment was the only one in the neighbourhood with a roof top terrace, from which we could overlook the entire neighbourhood. For lunch Derek treated us to the best bagels in Montreal with fresh cream cheese and lox.
