We're off tomorrow on our first train trip (and holiday) since January 2020.

It's a return on The Canadian from Vancouver to Toronto and back, with a stopover on the way home in Jasper for 3 nights.

Tomorrow (October 10) is also Canadian Thanksgiving, which is just as important to us as American Thanksgiving is to them.

It will be interesting to see what the chefs onboard will provide for Thanksgiving dinner.

I'll be missing in action for some time, expect me when you see me ;-)

The last holiday I had was in Australia, it was in December 2019 and I was almost stuck there because that is when the covid struck.
