Showing posts with the label VIA Rail Canada
I yesterday summarized the two cruise segments of our recent 50-day trip, and half those days were in Canada, mostly on VIA Rail Canada and Rocky Mountaineer trains, both with no WiFi.  Somehow, I think I only missed a couple of days of posts.  And some amazing good news.  The SJourney train trip we are taking from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi at the end of the year does have WiFi. Interestingly enough, during this current travel period, my original blog site, which had been averaging 500 visits/day for the first 15 years, jumped to 25,000/day.  For reasons I can't explain, this surge began from the American Melody cruise, Memphis to New Orleans, and continued on through Canada. This Canadian train trip changed my mind about trains. Turns out that the only time I slept overnight on a train was on VIA Rail Canada, a four-day ride in December of 2017 from Vancouver to Toronto . Passengers were peeved because we arrive half a day late.  Why? What happened about a year...
