I first looked for Iberville dock, thought wrongly that it would be at the base of the same named street, in East end Montreal. Relied on a taxi driver who first drove me there long stretch of Notre Dame spying for a solitary access to the lonely docks then whizzed me back to the Old Port.. realized that the lower dock numbers would be there. but where was number 5? then visited Cite du Havre... followed instructions of a port policeman who directed us to a pier called Bikerdike... saw pier M5 and what looked like a foreign cargo vessel. but no enameled cruise vessel in the dark night not a living soul in sight where was pier number 5? drove back to where we met the policeman continued on...persisted.. thanks to me I finally came up with pier called Iberville just below Place D'Armes metro stop.. see I never go to the docks let alone know what their names are.. the cabby didn't know his way around either, so I had an interesting learning experience. walked over to the checkpoint, asked for the person's name and stated mine... this cop couldn't find either.. it was already 45 min after my appointment so I waited about another 15 Waiting for Godot? hoping that the mystery guest would arrive... he could not be paged and his cellular phone was not working that was conformed when I got a message at home. returned mildly frustrated didn't enjoy the expenditure but the view of a top class cruise ship in harbour at night was well worth the effort.

I noticed something... The uniqueness of your writing style...what I would call "intellectual poetry", for lack of a better description. You are a very interesting and educated man, and it reflects so vividly in your writes... The more emotion in the work, the more texture in the tone of the piece... Always well written. ThisDiamond |

Hello Loner and Diamond, I have added some 'emotional' bits..but you're right it is different from the mainstream here  |
