Throwback Thursday - Canadian Pacific Airlines

Raise your hand if you remember Canadian Pacific Airlines.  Raise your other hand if you remember when you used to be served a meal on your flight.

Andrew sent this postcard to his wife in Ottawa from Prince George, BC on March 3, 1963.  On it he writes that the food was good but no better than what he can get on the ground in Ottawa.  Also it was quite dull without beer or wine he notes.

Throwback Thursday - Niagara Falls, 1940

I found this beautiful Niagara Falls postcard printed by F.H. Leslie Limited in an antique store and I really loved the colours of it. The card features the American falls lit up at night as seen from the Canada side, illuminated by 1,300,00,00 candle power.

Grace wrote this card to Lula on July 5th, 1940.  She lets her know she received her letter and scolds Lula for sending that money!
