Dr. Sun Yet Sen Classical Chinese Garden
We had a lovely rainy morning visit to this garden. Other than the very informative docent we had the whole garden to ourselves for almost an hour.








The docent did a wonderful bit of tutelage about yin and yang the - duality of all things.

Jasper
They have the sweetest little community garden.




It was early when we arrived, as we sat in a bench the sun came up and the birds started twittering. We departed into an overcast morning sliding along grey tracks bounded by snowy trees.

This Morning, Saskatchewan
We woke in the dark to the rolling fields of Saskatchewan. Now we are in the true flatlands with only the sky for company.




It’s pretty cold, between the cars there’s hoar frost.

Winterpeg
we had a station stop in Winnipeg and were able to leave the train and walk around for an hour. Folks on the train recommended a visit to the Forks. It was a great recommend.


There’s a skating trail and a walking trail. It was wonderful seeing so many new skaters, and many look like new Canadians.
