June 24 -- Off the boat and on to Montreal

It was time to get Becky and Grover to Montreal to catch their flight.  We were supposed to get them there on BlueSkies, but that was impossible due to the closure of the Chambley canal on the Richelieu river.  So, we all decided to take a train to Montreal.  It is only about 50 miles from our location.  We boarded the train at Rouse's Point and after about a mile, we stopped at Canadian customs.  We waited for over 2 hours as customs officials checked every person on the train.  When we got back going again, we got to Montreal within an hour.   We reached the hotel le Roberval, where friends Greg and Lu were waiting for us.  Yep, Greg and Lu were going to board BlueSkies in Montreal, but new plans are now being discussed.  One thing we learned early in  this trip -- take it day by day -- cause all plans will change.   The picture below shows Becky, Grover, Chris and I waiting for the train at Rouses Point.
