thathadwonderfulshopssellingcraftsandantiques.出发前，她们在温哥华待了两天，欣赏当地风光。第一天温哥华一如往常细雨蒙蒙。尽管天气不佳，她们仍然泛舟驶入海湾，接着游览了一座岛屿。岛上有精致的店铺，出售手工艺品和古董。2.Thenextdaywasclearandmild,andtheywerepleasedtoseethebeautifulmountainslookingoutoverthecity.Latertheytookapleasanthikeinaforestjustashortdistanceaway.第二天，天气晴朗，温度适宜，她们看到壮美的群山俯瞰着整座城市，甚是欣喜。随后，她们在不远处的森林中徒步旅行，十分惬意。3.Thenextmorning,thetwogirlsaroseearlytotakethetraintoLakeLouise,passingthroughtheCanadianRockies.Seenfromthetrainwindow,themountainsandforestsofCanadalookedmassive.次日清晨，两个女孩早早起床，登上开往路易斯湖的火车穿越加拿大落基山脉。从车窗往外望去，加拿大巍峨的山脉和辽阔的森林尽收眼底。3.Whenthetrainarrivedatthestation,theytookataxitoLakeLouise
