We are on our travels again! This time we are heading over to Canada to do a mini road-trip from Toronto up to Montreal and on to Quebec City. It should be a warm break at this time of the year.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY VICKY! The day didn't get off to a great start due to a slightly challenging sleep. We were both awake at 3am, thanks to Vick telling me off about snoring!

After finishing inside the Mesquita, we wandered around the narrow streets in the vicinity, until Vick lost track of where we were on the map. At that point, we decided to head back to the new town to get some lunch.

I was awake at 4 am, and it was a tad chilly in the room, having turned on the aircon last night. I dozed a bit longer whilst Vick snored her head off.

I spent the afternoon back at the hotel. I popped up to the terrace to check that out and it was lovely. The other three joined the bus tour at Plaza del Duque de Victoria.

We didn't turn the light off until about 11:30pm and I slept through til about 4:30am. Vick did much better than me, waking at something like 7:30am.

After fighting with the baggage carousel, our priority baggage came out (almost) last. The baggage carousel system wasn't very intelligent and consequently, there were a number of collisions between bags being injected onto the carousel with bags that were coming around again, having not been collected first time.

There was only one passenger in the queue at First Check In, so it wasn't long before we were checking in our luggage. That's another odd thing to do - we haven't checked in luggage for years and I blame Andrew and Sam entirely.
