From Edmonton, the train headed southeast across the
great Canadian Prairie. At school, Daiyu and Liu Qian had learnt that Canada’s population is only slightly over
thirty-seven million. However, they did not anticipate
seeing such an open country, and were truly amazed. They went through two wheat-growing provinces, where they
saw a bunch of farms that covered a very large area.

Para 6
After another day on the train, eventually they were back in an urban area, the city of Winnipeg. From there, they travelled through the night, and woke up in Ontario — a land of forests and lakes. The train thundered on, through the rolling hills. The bushes and maple trees outside their windows were red, gold, and orange, and there was frost on the ground, confirming that autumn had arrived in Canada. Night came again, and the train turned south towards Toronto. When they woke up the next morning and pulled back the curtain, they could see the wide stretch of Lake Huron—one of the four Great Lakes on Ontario's southern border. It was not until 9: 30 a m. that they finally reached the capital of Ontario, Toronto. All in all, their trip from Vancouver to Toronto had taken a duration of four days.
