I had been expecting rain in Vancouver but it has welcomed me today with sunshine and blue skies. It's a beautiful city. I walked along the shore, this morning and realised that - of course - it's the Pacific Ocean that was lapping at my feet.If the weather stays like this I'll be doing plenty of walking, both in Stanley Park which is a massive urban oasis on the waterfront, and on nearby hills. But there's also lots to do if the sunshine doesn't last.
The picture shows an Inukshuck - a traditional landmark and welcoming sign.
The final day on the train was the most exciting in terms of scenery. Day one was forests and lakes, day two was farmland, day three was mountains. We hit the Rockies mid morning, and had a break at the ski resort of Jasper. To give an idea of the luxury I've been enjoying for the last few days - this is the dinng car.
