Five Bucks...

So we arrived in Montreal for the day, and immediately went downtown, to the old city. First thing we see is this huge cathedral. It is called the Basilica of Notre-Dame of Montreal. We thought we would take a look inside, but the sign said the fee was five dollars a person, so we passed. The sign did say that it was free to go in and pray, however, which is good. Later on we talked to a local who said you HAVE to go see the church - it is as good as the one in Paris, even though it is smaller. So we bought tickets for ten dollars, because now the church was closed for viewing, but we could see the "Light Show," and then see the church afterwards. It was worth the ten bucks each, because the light show included a history of the church and the people who created it! It would have been worth twenty!
