I’m waking up at the crack of dawn tomorrow morning to travel to Montreal for the next several days. (And while I am SUPER excited to check out Montreal for only the second time in my life, I am way NOT excited to wake up at 4am for my flight.)
I was invited to check out the Daniele Henkel facility–a company that bills itself as “the leader in non-surgical health and beauty”–and experience a treatment. So mysterious! Will I return looking completely different? Sacre-bleu! (I’ll have all the details for you, I promise.) Unfortunately, Computer Jolie is still broken, so I’m going to have to use the business center at the two hotels I’m staying at.
Ah, yes…the hotels. This is what I’m really excited about!
I’ve had some Rue La La credit for months (ever since they very graciously refunded me on my bed – don’t drink and late-night online shop for mattresses!) and so I decided to trade in my credit for 2 nights at a boutique hotel called Le St. Martin. Located in the heart of the city, it’s supposed to have amazing views, modern, decked-out “Euro-chic” rooms, a great restaurant, and access to Montreal’s best shopping. I’m meeting up with an old Palm Beach friend–who happens to be from Montreal originally–and she’s taking me out for drinks and dinner with her friends on my first night. No better way to see a city than with locals! My second 2 nights will be spent at the L Hotel, which is owned by Georges Marciano of Guess and has a ridiculous art collection featuring Warhols and Lichtensteins.
I’m bringing my camera and Flip cam with me, so I’ll definitely have photos and videos for you once I get my new computer next week (whoo-hoo!) but in the meantime, I’ll try to blog from the business center or off my Blackberry. Have a great weekend!
