Day 1.212 – The Classic Hair
Loaded with my new EOS 50D camera, voice recorder, iPod – and a slight impatience for exploring Montreal – I go for a massive multi-hour sightseeing-on-foot crusade around town after a few hours of laptop research “at home”…
Welcome to Montreal! (Mouse on photo = text box pop-up)
Montreal is real love at first sight. Enough said.
After a long and exciting, home-made Tour de Montreal, I’m back on Aylmer Street. Suddenly, a voice behind me goes:
–Heey, are you Mr. Bangsgaard?
–Uhhh, yeah, that’s me (thinking: Who are you?)
–I’m Julien!
Some weeks ago I got an email from a guy, Canadian Julien, who’s been following my trip since Chile last year. Realizing I was coming his way, he recently invited me (via email) to come and stay with him and his girlfriend here in Montreal.
–I recognized your classic hair, Julien tells me, smilingly.
I, too, laugh out loud.
It’s such a coincidence! Being spotted in the center of Montreal that has some 3.3 mio. inhabitants. None of us can actually believe it. We have a nice little chat in the street and decide to meet up later.
