Travel 11 hours, from the southeastern United States
to the northwest of Vancouver, Canada.
By plane, I like to sit by the window, like the time
when the plane took off, and before landing, to enjoy the scenery of the earth.
When the aircraft is flying high, I see a sea of clouds, it is the most
beautiful can't see the most spectacular scenery on the ground. Unfortunately, the
plane of the port not only is very small, sometimes there will be the dew.
Sometimes
I can't help with the hand to wipe the glass, only to find that the window is
double. I even want to Boeing, or Bombardier Aerospace make a suggestion, the
window of the plane did a few bigger, and can automatic cleaning, so that the
view, should do a large window, even to the view, air travel will be unforgettable.
After a day of flying, this is dinner time. Aircraft
to reduce the height, my eyes staring outside the windows (of course, is a
small window, fortunately, it was clean). Change the dense clouds, it faded
away, my heart is not appreciate the sea of clouds. I
look forward to the scenery outside the window, guess I
should see a snow-capped mountains.
Sure enough, I saw a snowy peak under the plane, which
seems to be one of the beautiful woman dressed in a white shawl, gathering
together. I guess this area is Alaska. On some peaks, cloud-filled, it is
difficult to distinguish which is the peaks, which is the white clouds. The
plane flew over the Rocky Mountains, although less than the peaks of Alaska. In
the faint distance, or to see a seat peaks, under the background of deep blue
sky, as if just accept the coronation, wearing the crown of silver, sacred,
solemn, and magnificent.
Vancouver: Not a city by the map and latitude can
understand
To Vancouver. When the customs, waiting in a long
team. Vancouver's population of about 1900000, it is Canada's third largest
city, is also the largest city in Western Canada. If you know, this is across
Canada, from the eastern Atlantic Ocean, to western of Pacific the end of the
rail, the road in Canada, you will understand the importance of Vancouver.
Across Canada, I am afraid there is no climate warmer
than Vancouver the city. When we arrived in Vancouver, the temperature there is
no different from the South of the city, full of sunshine and blooming flowers.
It is noteworthy that winter here than in Toronto, Ottawa, much warmer.
Vancouver, it is the coldest season is January, the average temperature is 3
degrees, and winter is the rainy season.

In fact, this is precisely the charm of Vancouver.
Vancouver is not a city with a map, which can be understood by latitude. Secret
is Vancouver’s climate is not only decided by latitude, but is closely related
to the sea, is the sea currents of determine the temperature of Vancouver.
The
existence of the warm currents in the ocean is like a huge heater was installed
on the west coast of Canada, so that this area of Vancouver does not freeze
in
the winter.
In fact, in the winter to Vancouver to see the rain is
very attractive, because the winter is the rainy season in Vancouver,
continuous rainfall is common. Vancouver warm and rainy, it is closely related
with the back of the Cordillera Mountain and the Rocky Mountains. Mountains
blocking cold from the north, towering mountains also make the blowing from the
Pacific Ocean southwester with water vapor, climb, climb in the process of
condensation rainfall, which is Vancouver rainy reason.
