Coach Rides and Screaming Kids


Sep 15th. Time to leave my jail cell behind in Ottawa and head to Quebec. This consists of about 6 hours on 2 coach journeys with a brief stay in Montreal inbetween the two. The first journey is uneventful - I manage to doze a bit which is beneficial and then I arrive at Montreal. After a slight panic when i thought I had lost my wallet and a bite to eat, it is all aboard the Orleans Express to Quebec City. Unfortunately there is a small baby who just is generally unhappy and cries most of the 3 hours to Quebec (Just one of those things) - impossible to nap anyway. After nearly getting off at the wrong stop (Couldn't understand what the French driver was saying) I finally arrive in Quebec City. It was just like stepping into a provincial town in France.
