    We spent an hour in the morning with Ben looking at the van until he offered us the car to spend some time in the town while he works on Ruedi. So we parked our van in town and walked the streets and shopped a little groceries. Shortly after midday Ben sent us a WhatsApp that there was an unexpected issue (see the attached screenshot). And it will take three days to get the parts sent from Europe 🫤
    But he offered us his car (a tuned Peugeot 307HDI) to get around the area.
    Therefore we decided to drive to Montreal and check that already off while Ruedi is resting. We booked a hotel somewhat near the city and drove 1.5 hours back to Montreal, checked in and went straight to downtown because the sun had started to come through the rain clouds. We explored the old harbor and the surrounding area thoroughly before walking to La Banquise (THE most famous Poutine restaurant in Montreal and open 24hours 😱) and it was pretty amazing!! Afterwards we needed a long walk to process that hearty meal.
    The city is great, very artsy and the mix of old and new buildings works great.
