CitizenVectron Posted April 5 Author Share Posted April 5 Currently 34,000 feet in the air somewhere above Saskatchewan or Manitoba, but somehow still getting decent cell reception. Our takeoff was aborted (at full reverse thrust) and we had to go back to the gate. Pilot said that "the auto thrust system was showing irregular readings," but that we didn't need it to fly, so he had to fill out paperwork and we took off again, this time with manual thrust control. I had to frantically look up the model of the plane (because auto thrust failure is what has downed a few 737 Max planes), but it's a 737-800. So...just have to rely on the pilot knowing the right speeds! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And French accents are very nice. It's the most bilingual place I've been, people just switching between French and English all the time. Bonjour-hi is the standard greeting. Just had the mandatory poutine, and smoked meat sandwich (Green spot). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only two days into the trip so I'm sure I'll have more later, but: I'd definitely recommend staying in Old Montreal. Cobblestone streets and everything is 200+ years old, plus a Metro stop so easy access to the rest of the city. Feels like Europe. So far the best restaurant has actually been Lacutta, which is BBQ. Otherwise, Greenspot was fantastic for poutine and smoked meat sandwiches and other Quebecois food. Greasy spoon type of diner. We haven't really done any night life since we're not into that, we're more into the history and walking around. Lots of fantastic little cafes, patisseries, and boulangeries. I'd move to Old Montreal if I could...but even 1-bedroom, 1-bedroom apartments are over $1 million in a lot of buildings. Yikes! We went to the Biodome, which was good, but crowded. Biggest impression of the city so far is just how safe it is, and feels. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser_Soze Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 There was a truck in front of me with a US Army sticker, a Trump as Calvin peeing on the word "liberals" sticker, a Let's go Brandon sticker and a sticker that said, "Does this ass make my truck look big?" with a picture of Joe Biden on it. Can you guess the manufacturer? Bonus points for the color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CitizenVectron Posted April 14 Author Share Posted April 14 On the flight back from Montreal I would guess that 10% of the passengers were wearing masks (including us), and the other 90% had racking coughs and were spewing boogers without covering their faces. Despite the N95s, we clearly both caught something and are very sick. Looks like we may have finally caught COVID, but hard to say without testing. My wife is basically bed-bound, it sucks. On the bright side, were burning through Fallout and it's great! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser_Soze Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 My power went off at 2:30am last night and they kept pushing back the estimate of restoration. It seems like a vehicle caused the outage so the original time was supposed to be 8am, then it got pushed to 6pm and then eventually 9pm, and it came back around 8pm. Not a lot to do during that time, can't even shower or eat and my cell phone ran out of batteries. Good times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just charge my phone every 3 days or so, by that time it gets down to 30% and I charge it. Just so happens I was on the back end of that charge schedule 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
