         I believe the train leaves from Thompson.

         The caravan has been moved to later this year; so, polar-bear 
sightings are expected to be better.  "Careful" is right - Polar bears are 
smart critters, and powerful.

         I hope you're right - I'd love to see more whales.

>Have a good trip!

         Thanks; some of our friends have been on this caravan, and say 
it's a great one.
