    My daughter was around 6 when we were at the park and she watched a heron fly in and grab a duckling then swallow it whole while it was still alive and squawking, then grab a second one and fly off with it. The whole time the mother duck was trying to scare it away but it didn't work. It was one of her most traumatic events as a child and it gave her night terrors for a couple years.

      @user-jo6zo6ju9b, thanks Miranda for your always kind words, engagement and support. I have not done this journey in the summer, I would love to. My reason for winter travel is the cost, for everything. Hotels are less money, there are less people, and the train briefly goes on sale a couple of times a year. From what I heard from passengers that have done this journey in the spring and summer, said the views are much more stunning in the winter because there isn't so much foliage along the tracks. With the less foliage, you can see rivers and lakes you wouldn't other wise see. Best....Corrie

    Many years ago I did this quite often with a good book in hand. Those times gave me some of the most zen-like moments I have ever experienced. Rail travel, especially in one of these cars, is good for the heart and soul. It puts hours back into your life, vs the soul-sucking morass of air travel. It's a shame so few will ever experience it in these hectic days. Thanks Corrie for the video and music. I have stored it for replay.

      @coldlakealta4043, Bob, your beautiful comment warmed my heart and I am truly grateful. I couldn't agree more about the zen-like moments experienced on the train. My heart and soul got the desired wind down of life, while on the train. Most days were spend just staring out the window watching the beautiful world go by, and then eating one scrumptious meal after the next for days. No cel service and no wifi for much of the journey, is my favourite part. Holding my camera as steady as I can, while it's pressed tight up against the window is still relaxation therapy for me. My arms get a bit tired and my fingers get in the way once in a while, and reflections happen, but that's real life. Like you said, a good book in hand, the gentle sway of the train, a hot cup of tea to sip on and it is a soulful journey few will ever the pleasure to experience. I hope my work brings peace and joy to those that will never have a chance to take this spectacular journey. Being blind in my left eye really enhances how truly grateful I am to have one "good eye". I am fortunate every day that I can see and to be able to share with the world "what I see". Thanks Bob, you've been on this journey with me for a long time and I really hope we get that "Beaver Ride". Be well my friend. Best....Corrie

    I spent a lot of time as a kid shuttling around on trains. Here's the secret: time spent on a train is time off the clock - time for which you are answerable only to yourself and your thoughts as our beautiful country rolls by. This was especially true before the trains were equipped with Internet of course, but I suspect the magic still holds true. A good book, a window to see out of and you wish the ride will never end. From _Cats_ - memory, all alone in the moonlight, I dream of the old days ...

      @coldlakealta4043, Bob, your words couldn't be more true, and I am grateful for your insight. I agree with your secret, it's one of the reasons I've taken a love of train travel. The beauty of the Canadian train......no internet! You can get data when close to a major city, but that's about it. I had a great read on the train, something I often don't make enough time to do. I didn't close my blinds once, the world passing by is too beautiful to not see, I wished the ride would never end. It was a magical experience to start on the train in Vancouver and end in Vancouver. It was also spectacular to fly Harbour Air on a Twin Otter from Victoria and to end the journey in the right seat in an Otter landing in Victoria. A Beaver ride with you is next on the bucket list! I am always grateful for your contributions and thank you for your support. Best....Corrie
