Train Day 1

Well my day didn’t have the best of starts...the train was delayed for 6 hours! Apparently one of the the train cars had fallen off the tracks so they had to replace the wheels. I guess it’s better that it happened before we were on it!! So we finally set off from Toronto making our way west. I settled into my cabin briefly and then headed to the Skyline car where they were serving champagne and canapés...very fancy! And already I’ve met people and had lots of interesting conversations! Dinner time!! - the service was impeccable! You get a 3 course meal included in all sleeper fares so I’ll be eating like a queen for the next few days! Tonight I had clam chowder, beef and chocolate caramel torte. I finished my day sitting in the dome car where the whole ceiling is glass, and the activity coordinator gave us a talk about the wildlife we might see along the way!もっと詳しく
