Had a great time! Here's a day-by-day breakdown of the trip, from what I can recall.

Thursday:
Flew into Montreal around 5:30p and was immediately confronted with the harsh reality that Montreal was not half-French, half-English-speaking, but 100% French. After finding my way through customs to the bus stop by guessing at the meaning of french signs ("le grill?? What the hell is le grill?!"), I rode the 30 minute ride into downtown Montreal and found my way to the hotel.

A group of us Americans were staying at a rather luxurious hotel right in the middle of the goings-on, and after assuring the receptionist that the reservation was not meant to be for a "Jimmy O'Neill", I unpacked my suitcase and joined AfroNinja, Luis, Sniper and FBIPolux for some relaxing French TV.

Recharged, our small group ventured out into the city to find food and exchange our professional-looking green-back currency for some sort of mickey-mouse, monopoly money. Finally settling upon a Greek Restaurant, we stumbled through the French menus ("Uh...I'll have this one *points to picture*") and ate quickly. After the Canadian waitress tricked us gullible Americans out of our proper change from the bill, we took a quick walk over to the Karaoke Bar where the rest of the group was already enjoying themselves: Prootalfain, Bryce, StateofMind, Mike, DancingTurkeyGod, Malachy, Rig, 36Holla, AsthmaticHamster, Poxpower, Un-Kebecois, and Chrispington (if I forgot you, let me know. I have a terrible memory).

After some singing, some dancing, and many pitchers of beer the group stumbled out into the night to catch taxis to our various residences and hotels (don't drink and drive, kids). Swearing to never drink again, the gentlemen staying in my hotel room (Luis, Mike, 36Holla and AfroNinja) and an additional surprise guest (Poxpower) crawled into our respective beds and fell asleep (read: passed out).

Friday:
The day began bright and early at around 11:30a with the arrival of Jonas, fresh off a 13 hour car ride with Chronamut and friends from back home. After enjoying a healthy breakfast of pizza and caffeine in an outdoor patio restaurant, we retreated back to our hotel room to set up Jonas' xbox and pass a few hours until the next event of the meet-up.

Around 1:00, we set out again - this time for a Bar-B-Que held in the backyard of the residence of one DancingTurkeyGod and Chrispington. Aside from a few grapples with french pronunciations in the directions (thanks for repeating your street name 15 times for me, Michelle), we arrived and were immediately greeted with good company and warm meat. As the afternoon progressed, the group from the previous evening slowly reconvened over burger-eating, bbq chicken-licking, poker game-playing, beach-ball-tossing, fence-climbing, pokemon-walking, hangover-surviving fun, with the addition of new arrivals of Jonas, Chronamut, CrazyChihuahua, JordanD, Evil-Dog, and ShitonAStick.

Another subway-ride later, our American group was back at the hotel, showered, and ready for more Newgrounds-related frivolity. After a few unsuccessful attempts to find a bar capable of withstanding the unending insanity of 20+ people from the internet, we settled upon a classy joint by the name of "Charlie's". We played some pool, drank some alcohol, met another Newgrounder (Karulain), drew some penises on faces (sorry Chronamut), learned some french (or tried to...) and capped off the night with a nice walk home.

Saturday:
Got an even later start on Saturday, with a wake-up call at 1:30p. Again our group (Luis, Mike, Jonas, 36Holla, Afro-Ninja and myself) started off the day right with burgers and fries at a fairly cool restaurant (not sure, but I believe that the name of the restaurant roughly translates to "3 Bras"). After lunch, we grabbed some bizarre candy from a local drugstore (a milk-and-white-chocolate egg filled with odd, but awesome toys) and returned to the hotel to play some video games.

Soon enough, it was 5p and we were off to Laser Tag. Gathering all of the different users listed above (plus NegativeOne; minus a few that couldn't make it), we strapped on our flashing vests and manly guns for 3 death-defying tours in the 80s-rock-style maze of neon colors and more blacklights than your father's "If this van's a rocking" A-Team Van. I managed a solid 17/26 rank, shot Malachy at least 57 times in the face and pegged bouncy balls at anyone I could find.

After Laser Tag, the group split in two - the larger group went in search of burgers, the smaller group (myself included) ventured off in search of sushi. The 7 of us found an excellent sushi place, drank various Bubble Teas and Slushi's, ordered way way WAY too much and then had to stuff ourselves in order to avoid the "leave-food-on-your-plate" penalty cost (I've never heard of this extra fee before, but thank god we had Bryce there to finish that last plate of assorted sushi rolls).

Back at the hotel, we made a quick pit-stop into the Stickam room, showered, and ventured out once more towards the bars at around 11p. Finding a suitable bar to satiate our thirst, we all lounged about in the great outdoors, fighting the chilly night air with beer and rum. After the night's french-rap band packed up for the evening, the group retreated indoors to dance, drink and chat the night away. Before we knew it, it was 3a and it was once again time to head towards home.

On the way, our Canadian hosts were shocked to hear that we had yet to try Poutine and immediately directed the group towards a late-night fast food place. I shared a plate full of delicious Chicken Poutine with fellow-Americans AfroNinja and Malachy while JordanD and StateofMind enjoyed their own plate-full of Poutine.

Our night ended around 4:30-5a, the group of Canadian Newgrounds having escorted us foreigners safely back to the steps of our hotel.

Sunday:

I am tired and will write about Sunday/correct the other days later.
