IxD goes out on the town, w/ some local help!

The IxDG (http://ixdg.org/) organized a night on the town Montreal style. Some 27 of us managed to make it for the event, which started with a fun ride on the Metro to our destination along Rue St-Denis on the francophile side of town. We went to the restaurant Cafe Cherrier, where we had the restaurant to ourselves.
Good food and better company was the order of the evening, with great conversations all around.

Afterwards a smaller group of us walked through a beautiful residential neighborhood, where one of our local guides dazzled us w/ her knowledge of the architecture of row-houses (Montreal Brownstones) of this area. This was on our way to a chic, but sunday night empty, lounge, where we stayed for a bit. The Lounge, Cafe Merleis (sp?) is names after thsi amazing movie maker circa 1904, whose movies were playing on a flat panel in our section. Amazing stuff.

We then headed back to the Hotel where we made it just in time (I mean, just not in time) for last call downstairs. However, determined to make the evening, I mean morning last a group of 6 remaining souls caused a laughing, tearfilled raucous till about ... well (see time stamp).

Jorge has promised to put his many (my eyes hurt from the flash) pictures on flickr on some heading that goes like IA Summit and IxDG.

I REALLY want to thank all the locals who came and made this event so wonderful. Thank you Rebecca, Hans, Terry, and Sebastian. I can't wait to get the flickr article.
