Views from the bed / Auberge du Vieux-Port ~ Old Montreal/Montreal, CA • click to embiggenAfter a couple stress filled weeks for the wife and I - family and work related issues - we decided, at the last minute, that we needed the soothing tonic of a quick getaway and our anniversary provided the perfect excuse.
As always (except for those rare occasions on which we don't), we thoroughly enjoyed each other's company. And, since we always stay at the same outstanding, comfortable, and extremely friendly hotel when visiting Old Montreal - Auberge du Vieux-Port, recipient of a Travel+Leisure World's Best Award - our relaxation was virtually guaranteed.
One of my many candidates for my Best-Moment-of-the-Weekend Award was on Sunday morning when I was relaxing in bed reading the NY Times and the wife, who likes to take a morning walk, was out and about seeking a couple Tim Horton donuts for my morning pleasure. Needless to write, since she rarely disappoints, her mission was accomplished.
Consequently and amongst a host of other reasons, my advice is simple .... marriage to a good woman is highly recommended. And of course, as the wife will attest, the inverse is also highly recommended.

Happy anniversary and glad to hear the wife is doing well.
Auberge du Vieux-Port is a great hotel. I stayed there on a business trip 4 years ago and I will again if I ever make it up that way.
Happy Aniversary! Trish is in the Village C East dorms at Georgetown and is loving it!
