[ Meeting up for drinks ]

Next it was time to see some of Cat's friends at a bar near St. Laurent and Duluth. This is Peter and Sarah, along with Cat.


[ Group shot for drinks ]

Peter, Sarah, Cat, a poorly placed structural post, a hiding Finlay and Clare.

After that, we headed to Laval to have dinner hosted by Cat's co-worker in Italy.


[ Group shot at dinner ]

OK, so it wasn't a very good lighting situation for taking a picture, but here we have Evan, Cat, Chris Dyer from Ferrari, and our excellent hosts Pascal and Manon.

That wrapped up the Wednesday. The next time we were back in Montreal it was Sunday, race day.


[ Montreal Metro crowds ]

We drove in from Ottawa on the morning of the race, stashing our car out in the west end of the city and then hopping on the Metro with dozens of other F1 fans, who quickly turned into thousands of other F1 fans.


[ Leaving Jean Drapeau station ]

We nearly missed the stop to get off for the track, expecting it to be Ile-Ste-Hélène. It seems to have been very recently renamed Jean Drapeau, although we noticed on the way home that the transfer machines still stay Ile-Ste-Hélène.
