Relaxing yet tiring weekend

Its Monday tomorrow and I am not ready for work yet. Today all day, I did bunch of stuff, cooking, grocery, trying out haku patasi and then waited for a message. I wanted to talk to Nhas cha, she didn't call either so, its been a boring, tiring day. 

Right now, talking to Rencha about general day to day stuff. So, the weekend is over and weekend will start in another 4 hours. I was watching a movie "The Age of Adaline", at this moment its Paused.

Quebec City day. except I didn't get much sleep last night.

The day started at 5:15 am for me. I took shower, got ready and waited for R dai to drop me. I reached DT around 6:45 am. The bus looked okay, the fact that it had no restroom made me a bit nervous. The first half hour, the seat felt very uncomfortable, was worried about the whole day trip.

However, today is the best day of this trip. I made three new friends, Chinese and Lebanese, all live in Montreal. Helen who sat next to me was so nice. Natalie and Wei were nice as well. We all roamed around, took pictures, joked, walked together. I felt so happy I had to share with M and S. Overall, the day was super nice. I walked over 7.5 miles today.

The weather wasn't so great, but we made the best out of it. I wish I had another day here. I didn't get enough of Old Montreal. I hope I get to visit this place again soon, maybe next year summer. Around 8:45 pm, we reached Montreal. We all talked for a bit and said good bye. Oh boy, what a nice day. I guess if you are nice person, you deserve to meet nice people.

Canyon Saint-Anne, Montmorency Falls, Observatoire de la Capitale, Old Quebec City, everything was awesome.


Monday the Ottawa trip day...

I spent the day at home, got ready for the leave for Ottawa. We went briefly to the Rockland Mall. Around 4pm, I left home, reached the station around 4:40 pm. It was all day rainy day. By the time, I got into the bus, I was so tired, ready to fall asleep. With traffic, we reached Ottawa at 8pm.

P was already there waiting for me. We went to Sushi for dinner, then headed to the Bakery for dessert and then home. We got comfortable, poured a some wine, we started talking about different stuff. Around 11pm, we said good night. I couldn't fall asleep at all, Around 1:30 am, I fell asleep. It was tough .Then again, was awake from 5:20 am.

Around 8 am, I got fresh and waited for P to get ready. We had breakfast and went for a nice walk. It was another beautiful day. I had less than 8 hours and many places to see. We came home, got ready left to see Ottawa. It was short but an express tour.

I was back to Montreal around 8 pm, by this time I was dead tired and was ready for bed. I got home, had dinner, talked to S and then to bed.

Finally the day came to fly out of the country this year. B

I couldn't sleep much as I was planning things in my mind. I got to work as early as I could. I finished bunch of stuff at work, left work at 3pm. After staying a bit in traffic reached home. I double checked all the stuff and then it was time to head out.

The bus ride almost gave me headache, train ride was okay. I was so tired by the time, I boarded. So, the journey started. It was past midnight when we reached home. Then met bhauju, I had dinner and after taking a shower, I went to bed. 

Thursday 
I spent the day with bhauju at house, talking, sharing different things. After 4pm, it was time to check out the Montreal. St. Joseph Du Mont-Royal, the Montreal hill were beautiful.












Friday
I spent the day at home, it was a cold day than Thursday. Everywhere we went had closed, as it was past 6pm. The trip to downtown, very windy and cold day, DT was empty.











Saturday
Around 2pm, we all went out. The first stop was Planetarium, then the Olympic Stadium. Finally the Candlelight Vigil in DT. While it was so cold outside, time spent in the Eaton Mall was nice too. I tried Poutine, not any good. R dai and I talked quite a few things. Then around 1 am, I went to bed. 




Sunday
After breakfast, it was time to checkout the Tour Quebec City. The best day so far weather wise. We went around downtown, China town and old Montreal drive. I bought the Tour to Quebec City, which sorta shortened by Ottawa trip. Rest of the day from 2;30 pm, spent inside house. By this time, I was starting to feel really bored being home so much. For some reason, weather didn't help so much, else I could've done much more.

The ride of the season and was awesome...

We started around 2:15 pm, yes when the temperature outside is pretty high. We started from Wayzata and head out. We took a water break after 30 minutes and then rode couple of miles ahead. We stopped for some water and on the way back, stopped at the little store for some water and ice-cream. 

I had the Cone Vanilla thinking that it will be a perfect size. Oh boy, that was a lot of ice-cream. I was expecting about half of it and it defeated the purpose of getting a Cone. Anyways, after finishing ice-cream we headed back. We could see cloud and had to ride back as quickly as we could. That almost 8 miles back in one speed was tough. The closer we got, that harder it was. 

Finally I saw Welcome to Wayzata sign, I thought it will be maybe few more minutes. I am sure it was more than a mile, tough really tough by then. When I got the bike, I felt it, hahaha....

I reached home, got fresh and here I am typing this entry. I am ready to fall asleep and want another day off as a weekend.

I woke up around 7am and went back to sleep for a bit.

Around 9 or little after woke up, got fresh, called home etc etc. While my family was making their dinner, I made my breakfast and soon was time to eat. After talking to them, I called an uncle and then an aunt. After that I started the laundry and then was air drying my clothes. That's when a friend called me, we talked for an hour or so. It was so nice outside, it didn't take very long time to dry clothes. I was happy with that.

While staying in front of the computer, I started feeling sleepy and I ended up sleeping for an hour. I thought I had slept for couple of hours. I wanted to sleep longer for sure. Around 8pm, I decided to go get some fruits and veggies. I watched some tv and then was time for bed. While in bed, I watched a movie and soon was time to go to bed.

Overall a very relaxing Saturday.
