The Journey begins!

It is the night before my train trip to Ontario Canada for the FIRST Vinland Viking Market and Summer Solstice Celebration!
Why am I going?

Why else?! I am headed there to cook!

Why the train? Because I can, and I like the train, a most civilized way to travel I daresay.

The weekend of June 20th and 21st will see the inaugural event of what I hope will become a regular activity!
For more info be sure to check the website they have at The Vinland Viking Market


Depending on connections as I train East, I will update this blog with the adventures, though pictures may have to wait until I return.

  2. Enjoy the trip. The train is a great way to travel if you've the luxury of time.

    About 10 years ago, I took the train up to Vancouver, then switched to the Via and continued as far as Jasper in the Canadian Rockies.

    I'd told myself that someday, I'd find the time to take the train all the way across Canada.


    I spent a lot of my time in the observation car (more glass) watching the stunning scenery. I was traveling in January.

    (Take photos and post them, please.)

    This event isn't the same one you've cooked at before? Or was that one in Manitoba?


    How long is your journey, from start to finish?
