Some photos of Rocky Mountaineer holiday

Here are some pictures of my holiday. There was however one disappointment which i was hoping would get remedied but unfortunately it did not happen. I did not see a single Bear!☹️. That was my greatest disappointment of the otherwise a wonderful trip.
This was in Vancouver 

The steam clock in Vancouver 


The salmon hatchery in Vancouver



Were sent off right royally as we chugged away slowly in the train


You can see how hazy the mountains looked with the smoke from the forest fires.



Up in the mountains the air cleared after some rains 



Birds eye view of our hotel from the mountain top


View from the hotel window


Ice fields the Athabasca glacier


Loved this mountain with its unusual shape


Hope you enjoyed some of my pictures

Things I could not resist

Hello everybody. How time passes by so quickly. I cannot believe that I have been away from my blog for so long! Things that have kept me away this summer has been mainly my travel and my hubby’s health issues and several visitors coming for the summer. Anyway after so many hectic months there is a brief lull. Amongst my travels this summer one of the places i visited was the Rockies in Canada. I had a brilliant time. This is one of the things i picked up there which are so delicious πŸ˜„

Like many artists I seem to have this terrible compulsion to buy art stuff if I fall in love with it. These may seem like ordinary things and nothing to get excited about for others but for me they are so exciting.πŸ˜€

Another place that I visited this summer was The Lake District. I have been there several times but I don’t seem tire of it. Of course since I was there and it is the birth place of the  wonderful children’s writer Beatrix Potter I could not resist buying this sweet little book written by her.

Then there was this wonderful free class by the artist Karen Baker on the website Curious Mondo about making adorable elves so I had to have the clay. I hope to make an elf when I get a bit more time. I have even bought a mini oven in anticipation of that. 



Now if only there were more than 24hrs in a day maybe just maybe I would be able to find time to createπŸ˜€
