Really enjoyed that!!
I'm going to have to go there some day; but I've been saying that for years.
I'm originally from NB and when it came time for a summer trip, my friends and I always choose Montreal over St. Johns. There were a few reasons for that:
To fly to Nfld was allot more expensive than taking the train to Montreal. Montreal had the Expos and we always time it to see some great concerts. Probably the best were U2's Joshua Tree tour and Amnesty International's "human rights now benefit concert" where Tracy Chapman stole the show over some pretty big names. 80,000 people sang "Fast Car" right along with her. At that time the train was a party all the way up and all the way back (can't do that now). And last but not least were the Women of Montreal. If you've been there, you know what I mean.
Well that was a bit of a rant...hope I still get to St. Johns some day.
