LOL I measured my suitcase last night...I was freakin' for a little bit...because It's the BIGGEST one I have, and I don't want to bring 2...so...yeah, how to fit it all in there?  Sit on it, and have a friend zip it?  Hopefully, they won't have to open it for any reason at the airport!  :shock:

I'm leaving wednesday morning and I'll start packing an hour before I leave home...  No need to worry, just take the things I need out of the closet and pack them...  Hell, sometimes I even pack my suitcase about 5 minutes before I leave home :icon_mrgreen:

The only thing I worry about are the places on the plane...  I've paid Economy Plus but for some reason I can't chose those places online...  :(  I normally checkin online but this time I'll have to do it on the counter in the airport...  Stupid systems :(

For those of you traveling alone, or out of the country for the first time, nooo worries. Montreal is seriously the nicest city ever. Both the people and city itself are amazing. Last time I went, I was having trouble with the metro machine, and someone came and helped me without me even asking. I was shocked because I live near New York City, and if you're in the subway, losing your way...most of the time, no one will help lol. And everyone is willing to speak English for you if you don't know french, for the most part. It's just so friendly there, you'll see, once you get there, you'll feel at home and all those traveling worries will go away. :wub: I looove Montreal.

Ok! I'm leaving for work, then staying at my mom's tonight. Then I'm off to Montreal in the AM. See you all friday and have safe trips!!

I know a few others are staying at the Holiday Inn Midtown (page 3 on thread), and it was just under 60 USD on hotwire.com...but not sure if that's still available at that price (it's about 100 USD regular).  If you prefer something closer to the Bell Centre, there's a few hotels in the area that are maybe about 90+ USD to start.  Otherwise, rates start at about 50-60 USD for other hotels in Montreal.

What I recommend is maybe use a site like kayak.com where you can sort by your main "criteria" (i.e. price or distance to the stadium)...that'll help you narrow down the list and then you can read reviews from a site like tripadvisor.com about ones that you might be interested in.

I just want to wish you all a safe trip, and to have a great time with everything thats planned for this week, in Quebec, Charlemagne, and Montreal, and most importantly the concerts themselves....  ^_^

I wish I was there, but I cant wait to hear all the goss, see the pics, vids, and hear you're reviews and stories from this amazing forum get together. :P

Enjoy, and send my regards to Celine!  :in_love:

Darren.

WOW, What a blessing to be a part of such a wonderful community on this forum. The support and caring showed by all of you to each other is a credit to Celine and all that we love about her.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for you support of this fan gathering, your willingness to go above and beyond in helping each other, and the warm, fuzzy feeling that I get from your posts each and every day. You are very much appreciated in my life!  :flowers:

I am at work until midnight tonight, then home to do some last minute packing, possibly get some sleep and then up at 4:30am to get to the airport. My plans changed a little as I decided to take an offer for an open ticket for Celine for the Feb 10 show in Quebec City; couldn't let such a valuable prize go to waste...could I??

I am still fighting illness, but decided today that it was not going to stop me from making the most of this amazing trip to be. Please send some good vibes, prayers, or whatever works for you my way so that I can feel stronger on my journey. :thumbsup2:

Love, T;) :wub:
