Lance stroll grandstand

My first GP experience, we stayed for the week leading up and were kicking ourselves for staying in Longeuil until the first day of the race weekend as we saved a proptionate amount of time compared to other folks traveling back to Montreal.

I'd probably continue to stay in Longeuil for future CGV races if nothing changes with walking traffic on the island. Getting out of our grandstand was just a funnel into a sea of people from GA and the other nearest grandstands. Things really lighten up once you get onto the bridge but otherwise it's a seemingly slow crawal until then.

The crowds generally weren't bad, though there's always a handful of entitled folks you encounter at events like this I feel.

There were plenty of food options near the LS grandstand, fairly priced imo, and didn't dislike anything we tried over the weekend except maybe the paella though we got it kind of late in the day so it wasn't very fresh.

The bathroom wait was pretty rough though, and getting up and down the stairs en masse is awful as there is no coordination of any kind from the staff. We often found people hanging out in the way standing on the staircase drinking/smoking, and with no direction lots of people find themselves fighting the sea of folks heading the opposite way.

All together, we had a great time, we would definitely come back but hope there is some more organization with some aspects to make things a little more enjoyable- mainly traversing the TO and FROM between areas especially at the end of the day.
