We had a fun dinner at Arahova and then headed down to Old Montreal on the way we gave everyone the walking tour of Old Montreal. We then headed to for dessert and coffee and live Jazz.

The conversation turned geeky, we talked about blogging, security, Microsoft, politics, religion and lots more. Robert let us play with his Tablet PC and try out the handwriting recognition, it was very cool. A fun time was had by all, it's just too bad Robert, Maryam and their friends didn't have more time to spend in the city, we would have done some more sightseeing.

Thanks to everyone for the fun evening, especially to Robert for arranging it all.
