    I am planning a long weekend trip up to Montreal in April.  The weekend
    we are looking at is April 18th, which happens to be Easter weekend. 
    Will this be a good weekend to travel to Montreal?  Will clubs, and
    restaurants be open the evening of the 19th?  Would you recommend
    making it another weekend, or will this weekend be the same as any
    other?  Any info would be appreciated.
    
    Thanks,
    
    Kristen

|     I am not exactly old (35), but I can remember a time when bars closed
    Holy Thursday at midnight, and reopened Good Friday at midnight.
    
    That's not the case anymore.  Bars are allowed to remain open 
    throughout Holy Week - no problem.  That would be a good time to come
    to Montr�al - the weather should be predictable by then.  And I think
    the Guggenheim show at the Montr�al Museum of Fine Arts is on until
    late April.
    
    Send me mail at MQOOA::CARDELLA if you have any specific 
    questions.
