Happy Easter everyone!!!! Can I haz Carey Price to myself??
I need some travel advice. It's more expensive to fly to Montreal and back from Toronto than to go R/T to and from Toronto. So i'm thinking of flying to Toronto on Fri 7/1, seeing a Blue Jays game on Sat then to Montreal on Sun or Mon, then back and leaving Toronto 7/12 or 13. My questions are:
1. Train R/T is $156 non refundable, Megabus could be $10-30 each way. Which am I better off with? I've read about express trains, but I don't see any on ViaRail. The durations look similar
2. Is 3 full days enough to see Montreal where if I never went back I wouldn't feel bad. Or should I leave Toronto on Sunday.
I feel like for a 11-12 day trip, I'm wasting a lot of time in transport that I should forget Toronto. The thing is though, all of a sudden I can't use miles on the days I need to go to Montreal, but Toronto is wide open, so it's kinda like I have to do this schedule.
Sorry for the long math problem, but I tend to think things to deep and lose sight of the obvious solutions. I'm trying to save costs but I want to see as much as I can.
Don't discount Toronto as an absolutely fantastic city to spend time in. July 1 is Canada Day, and that Jays game (and the city 'vibe') is going to be really patriotic and really fun. They have some absolutely incredible fireworks down on the lake, and the festival of tall ships at the harbour. I can tell you all kinds of things about Toronto and give all kinds of suggestions about things to do if you let me know what you are in to. I've gone there so often that I know the downtown area like the back of my hand, my husband is from there is well.
We can always trade for a little while
YeshWasn't that Brussels 1 , my birthday?

Or just have fun together
