montreal

while we were in utah ryan and i left the kids for several days and headed to montreal, canada!  ryan was attending a conference and i love to tag along.  ryan's mom was wonderful to watch the kids.  nate and tara also came and we had a blast.  i liked montreal a lot more than i thought i would.  it reminded me of new york but less crowded and way cleaner.  the food was amazing and the town was charming.



this is a japanese restaurant that we ate at that is seriously the best i've had!  there was a line out the door.  i think we ordered like 9 dishes (which is not surprising, nate and ryan are known for over ordering).  but we ate everything.  nate even ate the fish head!


walking around, which tara and i did during the day.  we would just walk everywhere and pop into little cafes and shops and just enjoyed talking.



tara and i went to this famous bagel shop.  the bagel was hot out of the oven and i ate it just like a donut!  i did't need cream cheese it was dang good on its own





one night we ate at a place called joe beef.  we ate everything but beef.  we had oysters, cow tongue (which was actually good), rabbit and horse.  i actually couldn't finish chewing the horse.  it just felt wrong.  but the atmosphere was so the rest of the food was really good.



ryan and i had an afternoon to walk around and get ice cream.  they had a salted butter ice cream.  yes, please.



one night the conference had a cover band come play and it was the funnest night!  we stayed the entire time and just dance.  it was a blast!



our last night ryan and i biked up this mountain to see this amazing view.  worth the uphill bike ride!
