7/28/13 Linda's Destination When She Runs Away


Glacier National Park and Banff, Canada
July 23 - August 8, 2013

The Great Train Escape



Okay. It's where the mountains meets the prairie - Waterton Lakes National Park, Canada - if I can't make it to Zermatt, Switzerland or Murano, Italy.  In Waterton I'll be at the Prince of Wales Hotel.







As the world's first peace park, the Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park was created in 1932 as a symbol of peace and goodwill between US and Canada. It has evolved to also represent cooperation in a world of shared resources. The area has a distinctive climate and physical geography in which the rain fall  divides toward the Pacific, Atlantic and the Arctic Oceans. It is the only place in the world that is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, an International Peace Park, and a Biosphere Reserve.
