This website is a personal pictorial record of my trip across Canada in
June-July 2014
The trip was the culmination of a promise I made to myself over 40 years ago
I would like to thank.
Thomas Cook(Macclesfield) and Titan Travel for their organisation of the tour.
The tour manager Eric Hall for his informative and interesting description of
the places visited, his daily jokes and his patience in organising us all,
making sure that we were all in the right place at the right time.
The tour driver in the east, Byron Baker, for his exceptional driving,
willingness to ensure that we got to see all the important places of interest
and general helpfulness.
The tour driver in the west Mike Morrison for his interesting commentary about
the places we visited, also enabling us to see and photograph all the bears,
deer, sheep etc.
The tour drivers in Vancouver Graham, and Danny (from Westcoast Sightseeing) who
between them brought a very enjoyable tour to its conclusion.
The staff at all the hotels and restaurants visited during the tour.
The most important people on the tour, the other 32 passengers, who in their
various ways made this the holiday of a lifetime for me. (Not only have I not
been to Canada before but this was at the age of 68 my first trip outside the
UK)
Last but not least, the people of Canada, who I found to be helpful and
friendly, from coast to coast.
I hope to return to further explore the various locations visited on this tour.
