July 13th & 14th - Rocky Mountaineer Adventure - Rod's pictures
These are some of those taken from the exposed viewing car at the back by Rod. I visited a couple times but the fumes bothered me and on the rainy times I gave up and stayed inside.
Thank you very much Rod for sharing! 💞
July 14th - Gifts Received
OMGG - seems like I'm still celebrating my birthday!!! Thank you Leanne and Rod for these lovely gifts! I know Leanne made this lovely Friends hanger for me and she also wet felted this fold over pouch (I have to decide what type of closure to add). Everything is lovely, the bracelet is beautiful and she made it too!!! This is way too much!!! 🥰
July 14th - Rocky Mountaineer - Part 10
Near Chilliwack we're seeing some foggy scenes and onto a single track so speeding along to Mission then slow down again. Not to my liking, stomach likes slower speeds. It's POURING!!!
Lots of fertile land and dairy cows in barns etc. Reached Mission, rain stopped and sun out. Dreary day but not much of mountains, more farming and dairies in this valley. Some fruit and grape growing too.
Now into Vancouver and lots of bridges plus a new one being built. Even separate ones for the automated Sky Train - at first they had to put dummy operators on for people to use it! Also a beautifully engineered spiral similar to our St Boniface walkway bridge.
Got to our hotel, checked in and then around the corner to an Italian Restaurant for supper. Then back to the room to relax for an early wakeup and 8am pickup to ferry to Victoria.
