The Canadian

Looking to do this as my big vacation next year. Read through a few of the posts, and have found good info.

- Buy on a Tuesday and/or [either] Thanksgiving week to save $$$.

- Do coach from Toronto to Winnipeg and then switch to a berth.

- Bring cards (and my travel cribbage board).

- Bring a good book for nights.

A couple questions though:

- what is/are the meals to absolutely get?

- what are the good/best things to do/eat within walking distance of long stops? Even if I'm being fed on board, there are always local specialities

- what are the odds of a winter cancelation of the trip? I'm from the Northeast US, so i know how bad winters can get, but lake effect snow may be a different beast than plains or Rockies snow.

- is there a cool enough way to get from Vancouver to Seattle to fly out of SEA-TAC, or should I bypass that and fly back from Vancouver?

S2 Portraits

Watching this now, so I only did a quick skim to avoid spoilers, so apologies if it's already out here. Why are the portraits so bad in quality? It looks like the ones they ordered never made it, and some PA was sent out to some headshots edited and blown up with about an hour and a half to work.

What is the deal?? Every other version, they look really good!

I might be in trouble...

At my niece's sixth birthday (last year - yes, I've been ruminating on this that long), I told her a knock-knock joke. Just the "your doorbell was broken so I had to knock".

Within 5 or 6 seconds (maybe less), she came back with:

Ring, ring

Who's there?

Your door was broken so I had to use the doorbell!

Yes, she goofed the format, but.....I'm in trouble with this one, aren't I?
