A land of vast distances and rich natural resources, Canada became a self-governing dominion in 1867 while retaining ties to the British crown. Economically and technologically the nation has developed in parallel with the US, its neighbor to the south across an unfortified border. Canada's paramount political problem is meeting public demands for quality improvements in health care and education services after a decade of budget cuts. The issue of reconciling Quebec's francophone heritage with the majority anglophone Canadian population has moved to the back burner in recent years; support for separatism abated after the Quebec government's referendum on independence failed to pass in October of 1995.

Border~ Toronto~ Sudbury North America » Canada » Ontario » Windsor

DSC00720

Oh we traveled all afternoon into the night, we needed to get back into Canada, the car was sounding very rough. It was a wheel bearing. We got to Windsor late, breezed through Detroit. We had no trouble getting back into Canada. lol It was great to be home. The American people are nice for the most part. We didn't get a lot of help in Chicago with the money matter but but everywhere else they were hospitable! Of all the places we've been my favorite part of the state was South Dakota, people wise, they were very nice, scenery wise, [View Full Entry]

Day 3 - Vancouver North America » Canada » British Columbia » Vancouver

Totem Poles
Totem Poles at the Capilano Suspension Bridge

Capilano Suspension Bridge Had a "Sunshine Breakfast" again - this time with toast and my own bought jam lol. We hen walked straight through DownTown Vancouver to Waterfront station to catch a Seabus (water ferry) to North Vancouver. Waterfront Station is really pretty - like a very small version of Central Station. We walked to the ferry terminal - well ran - as the Seabus was about to depart. The Seabus moved quite quickly really and gave us a great view of The City of North Vancouver. We docked and caught a bus to the Capilano Suspension Bridge and Treetops Adventure. [View Full Entry]

Ottawa and St. John's North America » Canada » Newfoundland & Labrador » St John's

I sit here, with a giant pile of adorable long-hair, domestic mop of a Freya on my right lap, I'd like to recall some details my flight and arrival into St. John's, though there wasn't too much to report about it. The flight wasn't very long, though it was long enough to make good use of the individual screens on the back of each seats to watch a full length feature film. I chose "Night at the Museum 2" since I'd seen the first one and hadn't gotten around to watch the second for lack of interest, I suppose. It was [View Full Entry]

Pacific Princess one-day cruise Seattle to Vancouver North America » Canada » British Columbia » Vancouver

Mount Rainer

Travelogue - Day 1 Seattle, Washington Hello everyone! Greetings from Vancouver! Our travel day yesterday could not have been better. We took off from San Diego at 10:30 a.m. and flew directly up the center of California, Oregon and Washington. After about an hour in the air, I could see Half Dome in Yosemite Valley and then directly below us appeared Lake Tahoe. The lake appeared to be full and was gorgeous colors of green, blue and turquoise all around the shore on the east side of the lake. Flying north from Tahoe, we passed over several lakes in Nevada and [View Full Entry]

Banff to Calgary North America » Canada » Alberta » Calgary

From Marja The last few days has meant saying goodbye to the Rocky Mountains. It's a bit sad as it was so spectacular. We ended on a high point with a helicopter flight and I got some very good photos out the window. Calgary is a nice town and I spent the time winding down from the tour and getting the washing of clothes sorted. I still haven't had a bad meal in Canada and the service is excellent. To add to my holiday happiness they have a lot of "Dog the Bounty Hunter" on TV. I love Dog. I especially [View Full Entry]
