This afternoon we will go to Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport to catch an Air Canada flight to Toronto.
The flight doesn’t arrive until midnight, so the first post from the road will be sometime on Wednesday from our hotel in Toronto, the Marriott Delta.
The itinerary goes like this:
Thursday night at 10:00 PM we board VIA Rail’s Canadian for a four-night three-day train trip across Canada, scheduled to arrive in Vancouver Monday morning. (Since passenger trains have to give way to the freights who own the tracks, the Canadian could be many hours late arriving.) There is no wi-fi on the train, so any posts while traveling will be from stations along the way that might have wi-fi available.
In Vancouver we will spend two night at the Marriott Residence Inn and do a bit of exploring. We have visited Vancouver before.
Then we fly on to Portland, OR and drive down to Depoe Bay where we will spend eight nights in the same condo at the Village at North Pointe that we have rented three times previously.
Finally, we fly home to Phoenix on September 21st.
