and the adventures begin...

dear me, everything that could possibly go wrong did on my trip to Montreal! Firstly, I nearly missed my flight to LA from Sydney, as I had to get one of those security checks and the first plane was running a little late (it didn't help that I had no idea in the world what I was doing at the airport!) When I finally arrived in LA I missed the first flight to Montreal... and the second... and the third! See on the second flight I had to go via Torronto and everybody catching the connecting flight to Montreal missed it. Sooo.. we were given the next flight at around midnight but it was delayed and then it was cancelled! So the next thing I knew I was stuck in Torronto airport overnight! Out of all of these travelling nightmares I did make some great friends though. While waiting in the line to catch our second flight to Montreal I made friends with a French man called Kevin. He was very lovely and helped me learn a little Frnch while we waited in the looong lines! I also met a Canadian named Alex. We stayed at the airport overnight and caught the plane to Montreal together. Out of sympathy the ladies at the airport upgraded us to business class which was definetly a bonus! The third friend I made was an Australian man called Ben. I met him in LA and he was very, very nice to talk to. All of these people I met made my rather overwhelming trip very memorable. To conclude my hilariously eventful trip to Montreal my luggage got lost so I now sit in the Cirque residence jet lagged, luggageless but very excited to start everything tomorrow morning!
