Waiting for our ride
Toronto has a very good tram system - or streetcars as they are known here.

Beavers!
I lied - no beavers - but here is a typical wetland scene with half a dozen beaver lodges poking out of the water.

The Prairies
The potash mines are over a kilometre deep underground. The pink, salt deposits are removed, leaving vast caverns, and are stored in huge piles which can be seen from miles away.

Saskatoon
Getting off to stretch our legs twice a day was a pleasant change. This shot gives a good feel for the length of the train ... this is the second half.

Getting Ready to Leave
After check-in, we passed the time keeping an eye on our luggage and watching a man with a stick wash the viewing dome windows!
