Leaving on a jet plane

Yes folks, I am leaving on a jet plane on Sunday 27th to go to Canada and the US for long service leave. I thought I could keep the music thing going for a while at least...
My cousin and I are visiting Vancouver and then Victoria Island before going on the Rocky Mountaineer through the Rockies to Jasper. We are spending some nights at Jasper, Lake Louise (at the famous lake Louise Chateau) and Banff before heading to Calgary. I then fly to Montral to pick up a car and go off on an itinerary which includes things as diverse as the largest patchwork shop in the US, Niagara Falls, Maya Lin's magnificant Civil Rights monument, Margaret Mitchell's house in Atlanta, the Great Smoky Mountains and then a long drive up the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Skyline drive to stay in Manassas outside Washington. I will then go up through Gettysburg and Lancaster County on my way to Concord, home of Louisa May Alcott, author of Little women. I am then going via Bar Harbor and the ferry across to the Lighthouse Coast of Nova Scotia to halifax and then onto Prince Edward Island. I am staying in Charlottetown for 8 nights and going to the LM Montgomery Institute biennial conference, Anne of Green Gables - the classic novel. I am then flying to San Francisco where I will spend Independence Day. Looking forward to the fireworks across the bay.
