It was filled with laughters, photos (2000+ of them), and lots of delicious food. Despite having visited Montreal a few times, this visit is still new and different. Between the two cities, we all fell in love with Quebec more with its relaxness in the air, and true French town while Montreal feels more like just another modern city.
Overall the trip was memorable and lovely to completely soak in the French environment (and only for a short while).
