We all met in the lobby at 7 :30 to depart to the Montreal Forum. We made the trip by taxi. Our reserved seats at the Follies were some of the best in the house. The Ice Follies were a spectacle never to be forgotten. The superb ice skating, the lighting, the glamorous costumes and the flashing skates were a glorious sight. Everyone enjoyed the Fo'lies immensely. After the Follies, we returned to the hotel. Some stayed at the hotel while others went out for snacks, bowline-, etc. Saturday morning some were up b-Vht and earlv to see the city, wh'le others remained at the hotel.
