At the end of March/beginning of April, I travelled on The Canadian cross-country railway from Toronto to Vancouver. It was a four-day trip, passing through some stunning scenery (even the flat bits). While I blogged about the trip then, I didn’t get around to posting a selection of the photos until now.
I hope you like them.
Seats by day…
…and a bed by night.
Spent a lot of time in here.

Manitoba Legislature. Note the “golden boy” on top.
One of the spirit animals guarding the legislature.
And another bison.
And the two together.

If you look carefully, you can see Madonna with Christ in the background on a tree.

The part going into Jasper was the most spectacular. However, every bit of the scenery had something to recommend it.
