People first tamed animals a very long time ago. It was a necessity - they needed to have meat, milk, fur at hand. It was easier to have animals near than to go hunting in dangerous conditions. Then people tamed the next group of animals - to protect the useful animals from the wild. And suddenly humans realized that it was fun to have a home animal. Thus first pets took their place in the homes of our ancestors. Nowadays people can choose a wide range of different pets - cats, dogs, mice, hamsters, snakes, lizards, birds. The most popular are cats and dogs. But I think it is easier to have a caged pet. For example, chinchillas. Because modern people spend most of the time at work, in my opinion it is cruel towards dogs or cats who might feel lonely. But if I speak of myself I would choose a dog, because it is a loyal and kind creation and I like long walks where my dog would be a companion.
the swaying of the train and the clickety-clack of the wheels rolling along the track lulls me into a trance as the trans canadian train rumbles along the track. i lie on a freshly made bed, mesmerized by a blur of conifer trees as the scenery outside my carriage is gradually swallowed by dusk.
the comfortable bed and rocking motion puts me to sleep quickly as the canadian train whizzes past trees, lakes and cabins.
the rumbling and grinding of the train provide an unexpected soundtrack to my dream of herds of buffalo thundering across the plains.
waking up to the sounds of the train is one of my favourite moments on this epic via rail train across canada.
train across canada in autumn
there are three classes of travel on board the canadian.
somewhere between the railway towns of gogama and longlac, on the canadian shield, i dream there’s an earthquake.
but it’s only the train shuddering on the tracks.
when i open my eyes, the sky is a crimson blanket dotted with puffs of pink clouds.
it’s easy to slip into a world of your own on board the canadian.
on this train trip across canada, you’ll feel like you’re swept away by the majesty of a bygone era.
