What a day. Left Levis at 9am. Needed help putting gas in the car (couldnt understand the french insructions. The aim was to hit Montreal by 11.30 am (before peak traffic) so as to navigate the hetic freeways. We managed this very successfully (it only took 45 minutes to clear Montreal).
Had lunch at Tim Hortons ( Bowl of Chilli, roll, coffee and doughnut for $5.90), Not bad for a meal. Then it was back on the 401 to Toronto. Ended up driving 60 kms with the gas light on before finding a gas station. Got to Toronto around 5.30 pm. Then we got lost in downtown. Our turn off to the hotel was closed, then the road we were on wouldnt let us turn left or right for blocks. Thanks to Lynleys good navigation and me doing an illegal U turn we found the hotel. They charge $22 per day to park your car as well.
Anyway arrived in our room around 6.30. Rested, then hit the Eaton Centre (an extremely large mall (3 or 4 levels). Had a quick look round before having mexican for dinner.
The total distance from Levis to Toronto was about 800km's, not bad for a days driving.
