Montreal, QC


We again left for Montreal after a long morning and visited the Bank of Montreal Museum where we learned of Canada’s first bank, its founders and history. The bank was founded by nine Montreal businessmen in 1817. The bank rapidly expanded to various other cities and had interests in the US, particularly New York and Chicago.

The Bank of Montreal was also instrumental in unifying Canada’s currency and printed the bank notes for some time.

Since it was a hot day we thought a cool movie would be refreshing and fun. The Science Center has an IMAX theatre and here we saw a 3D movie entitled Super Dogs on the extraordinary skills and talents of dogs used for search and rescue and therapy. Too bad our super dog, Pepsi, couldn’t join us.

After the movie we strolled through Montreal a while and took the shuttle back to our campground.
