September came and summer is close to ending in Toronto. To get sunset
is early and there are some days when I wear a long‐sleeved shirt. Compare
with Japan, Coming summer of Toronto is a little bit late and passing
is a little bit early. But I don't want to stay in Toronto on the summer
so I went to trip with my friends.
The destination is Montreal & Quebec!
You can get for 6 hours from Toronto to Montreal by bus. To Quebec is
more 3 hours from there. Total time is 9 hours. The trip which I took
a buy with long distance is the first time for me. language is French in
these cities like Europe.
Quebec
Quebec is called oldest city of fortress and has some wall like below.
Some batteries are there in the city.
I did, eat an omelette or Poutine... Poutine which is a food, fries with cheese
and sauce like type of brown sauce is one of Canadian special product.
I heard that Quebec is the birthplace of Poutine.

Especially, night scene of the city was vert beautiful and I felt to come
foreign country even though living Canada.
Montreal
This city is Montreal where is a city in Quebec Providence. I though
Montreal is mixed Toronto and Quebec because it has downtown in
addition looks of city like Europe.
I could ride the bicycle because Montreal has Public bike system "BIXI"
which I introduced at the old article. And I ate Smoked beef which is
a special product too.
Smoked beef
Ad these cities is called French Canada, Some of part was difference
from Toronto. The logo of Starbucks is written by French. Moreover
almost products of SAQ, Canadian place to buy some alcohol, are wine
though LCBO, place to buy some alcohol in Toronto, has variety of beer.
beer is put in small place only. In this connection, you can buy some alcohol
at the place like SAQ or Toronto only. You can't buy ant super place
like markets.
LCBO:Liquor Control Board of Ontario
SAQ:Société des alcools du Québec
STARBUCKS in Montreal("CAFE" is remarkable!)
And there are many European restaurants, French, Italian and Spanish food.
In Toronto, there are many variety of restaurant, Japanese, Korean and
Arabic from world. Although I squandered a little, I prefer Montreal &
Quebec about foods more than Toronto. Usually, I was drinking wine.
At the time, I saw beautiful city, ate delicious foods and drank good Trip
everyday. The trip was fresh thing because I was going to the place which has
beach in southern countries if I go to trip. I also like that trip!
Talk to you soon!
