I’m heading to Montreal at the end of July and am very much looking forward to a visit to the Atwater market. Finding awesome local products and having an al fresco meal riverside sounds like heaven..

In reply to Jen. Jen I think I actually went to one of those in Winnipeg and it was AMAZING! Or, it was something really similar :) Gosh what I wouldn't do for a luxe spa day right now!

My husband and I visit Montreal every American Thanksgiving weekend. It’s actually where he proposed (on the steps of Notre Dame Basilica), so it’s a very special place for us.

I am still waiting for my warm-weather trip. We were planning on going to the Formula One Montreal Grand Prix this June, but Coronavirus. I’m also still waiting to get to Bota Bota! I discovered it a couple of years ago and have been dying to fit it into a trip but haven’t yet.

If you liked Bota Bota, you should check out the Scandinave Spa chain in Canada (they’re usually around ski resorts like Whistler, Blue Mountain and Tremblant). Same thermo/hydro-therapy concept almost entirely outside in natural environments. I’m particularly fond of the one at Tremblant (just 90 minutes by car Northwest of Montreal). It’s large, set on the Diable River, and so serene.

In reply to Julia Nix. I can't wait to get a proper pedicure! I predict the spas will be packed, ha.

In reply to Mary B. Yeah, I mean as I was going through an Upstate New York winter myself at the time, I didn't think anything could really SHOCK me. But wow it did.

In reply to Rick. Yes, I'm so glad we got to visit. We managed to meet up twice in 2019, pretty wild considering everything we both had going on.

In reply to Karen. You're the best! And I'm lucky I had Ian trained as my perfect photog by then :)
