The hotel we stayed at in Montreal is the LHotel owned by Georges Marciano, a big art collector and especially a fan of Andy Warhol. The following painting was made by Andy Warhol of Marciano himself.

And there are art pieces — sculptures, paintings, etc. displayed throughout the hotel, such as this sculpture which has inner lighting that changes colors continuously (I call it the "Glowing Man").

Shortly after we left Montreal, it started raining again. In heavy rain we took the Thousand Island Parkway but made just one stop in the dreary weather. In heavy rain we also crossed the border and entered the U.S. We would improvise and drive all the way to the little town of Ithaca and had dinner at the Antlers restaurant.
