Diane Deb and I drove up to Montr\u00e9al Late morning to go meet Gabe and Hannah and Olivier and Ian and Maddie for lunch at the restaurant where Matt works.<br \/>\nThe restaurant is called Lola Rosa and it&#8217;s awesome ! It&#8217;s 100% vegetarian and has some pretty exotic stuff like hemp burgers. Matt is now the main cook and really enjoys working there. The restaurant is right outside of the McGill campus. That was the real reason for our visit. Gabe come up a couple of days earlier to go to a Swedish house mafia Show. The plan was for us to meet today and go to work the McGill campus. Which is what we did\u2026<br \/>\nMcGill is a huge place. Over 30,000 students. But it did have a nice compact feel to it. It has a great new biology and biochem lab which is what game seems to be most interested in. This is our first college campus visit so it was pretty exciting. All in all we liked it. It was a mix of old and new architecture. Students there seem to be reasonably happy. We got to tour a  dorm room which was pretty nice. And there was a Tim Hortons right across the street\u2026 What&#8217;s not to like?<\/p>\n<p><a href='https:\/\/picasaweb.google.com\/111725751926738392971\/MyBlogPhotos#5850585371781689586'><img src='https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/-xkIq2nh3nSY\/UTF0Zd0k8PI\/AAAAAAAABM8\/qZjZ55B9H_s\/s288\/24.jpg' border='0' width='300' height='400' style='margin:5px'><\/a><br \/>\nIt was a relatively warm day but they still had quite a bit more snow than we had. I was thinking about how it would be to go to school in Montr\u00e9al. I was guessing that it was one of the coldest Larger cities in the world. I actually looked it up I believe it is the eighth coldest city on average temperatures. The coldest being Ulan Batar in  Mongolia then a city in Kazakstan  I believe Helsinki, Moscow Tallin , Ottawa and then I think Montr\u00e9al. Not too bad but Gabe would be used to it it&#8217;s the same weather that we have.<br \/>\n<a href='https:\/\/picasaweb.google.com\/111725751926738392971\/MyBlogPhotos#5850585397168838466'><img src='https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/-GGaFuT3s5W0\/UTF0a8ZWF0I\/AAAAAAAABNE\/CuXTeJ8v5kk\/s288\/25.jpg' border='0' width='300' height='400' style='margin:5px'><\/a><br \/>\nWe&#8217;re trying to figure out other cool science schools that we can check out. ?
