We said goodbye to Martin after supper in a wonderful local restaurant, then ended up spending the night in a hotel at Mirabel's passengerless airport, cause nothing else was available in the area. It was built in the middle of nowhere, the lands expropriated 25-30 years ago, the town disapered, all in the name of progress. It became Montreal's International Airport. Now, they've shut down the passenger service in the airport, recognizing the brilliantly white elephantineness of the place. On top of that, the Hotel was 2 nights away from closing permanently after 25 years of operations. It was Eerie, a hotel in the middle of nowheres, that was packed, about to close. Go Figure!
