TORONTO to SEATTLE in TWO WEEKS

In June we made a whirl wind tour to the west.
Calgary was our first stop; our hosts were Peter and Sharon R. (Peter is a former college roommate.) Peter made sure we saw the tremedous house-building that is going on in Calgary. Unbelievable. The sun set rather late in Calgary so that left us lots of time to wander around the city.

Our next stop was Banff. The Mountaineer Express was our two-day transportation through the Rockies and into Vancouver.



We spent one night in Vancouver before crossing to Victoria. My sister and her husband were hosts for the remainder of the trip. Together, we went to Seattle for three days.

The trip was wonderful.
The Mountaineer ride through the Rockies was fantastic - and, for the squeamish - there were no scary bits!
