My handsome husband and I just returned from a train trip to the west coast. We had so much fun. the train is a really great way to go, see lots of sights and meet a whole lot of interesting people. We traveled in coach class, yes we slept in our seats, not really comfortable but we did the whole trip for less than $3000. I really hate to spend a lot of money on travel. the less I spend on this trip, the more trips I can take.
I also learned a few tips to use on our next trip which will save us even more money.
The Rockie Mountains are spectacular. It's astonishing to see.
I am going to get my pictures soon and write my book about the trip. I like to wait a little while to think about what I saw and did, not too long because I can forget pretty easily where I was, but I like to think about it from a little way apart before I start.
One of my favourite cities that we visited was Winnipeg. I found a little costume museum there that I didn't know about. Lots of hats and quilts. Very nice. I didn't know that the big knitted sweater coats were still being knitted and worn. I saw them in the costume museum, the Manitoba museum and on the street. I think I want one for myself. And who knew that velour pants were still the hot fashion item that they are.
