A Christmas Train Across Canada

$13.00

A Christmas Train Across Canada, will take you for a ride on Canada’s transcontinental railroad. Canada is home to breathtaking natural beauty and world-renowned cities. It is especially lovely at Christmastime with its winter scenery of snowy pines, clear, cold lakes, the majestic Canadian Rockies, and festively decorated towns. First stop Vancouver. As you travel through Vancouver you will experience the December Festival of Lights in the VanDusen Botanical Garden and a walk across the 450-foot Capilano Suspension Bridge decorated with thousands of twinkling lights, followed by the traditional afternoon holiday tea at the Hotel Vancouver. Beautiful and vibrant photographs take you to the Rocky Mountains, the 300-foot frozen Pyramid Falls, and the spectacular night sky at Jasper National Park, home to one of the world’s largest dark-sky preserves. After a sleigh ride along the frozen shore of Lake Louise, and the “castle in the Rockies.” The next stop is Calgary, where you will visit Canada’s largest living museum. But mind the weather—it can be unpredictable: you’ll never know if the warming chinook winds will keep the temperature mild or if a sudden storm will leave a foot of snow! Either way, you will learn how this big city keeps its small-town feel with its warm holiday festivities. A Christmas Train Across Canada takes you from one awesome adventure to another. Lovely postcard-perfect images move you through the Great Plains, and northern lights. From there, it’s on to the famous Niagara Falls, followed by Toronto. On the next part of your tour, your guide describes how the early French settlers introduced new Christmas traditions to Canada. Along your travels from charming Montreal, with its Santa parade and fireworks display, to tobogganing down a century-old ramp in Quebec, to our final destination in Halifax, Nova Scotia. This book will give you and your family a better understanding of the people and traditions of this great land.
