@ Dashing Through the Snow
Mama Bunny and Prickly have been given a free map to help them enjoy their Winter Tour! Before unfolding it, they read the cover:
Ski & Skate
Today's trip is on a modern train with spacious seats and large windows to enjoy the passing winter scenery. The train's first stop by a frozen lake allows the pets the opportunity to stretch their legs with a little skating! Let's hope there are no frozen paws from this adventure! The trip then proceeds to skiing grounds with steep snowy slopes, cable cars, chair lifts and an Olympic ski jump! The pets can also turn their paws to snowboarding if they wish. The pets will meet a cute little critter also trying to ski. Back on board the train at the end of an action-packed day, the pets will have the thrill of seeing the Northern Lights as they travel home in the setting sun to that night's lodging. There they will enjoy a warming milky coffee and a bowl of hot soup by the wood-burning stove in the dining room, while admiring the snowy scene outside.
Dashing Through the Snow
While an aeroplane might get you to your final destination more quickly and efficiently, nothing can surpass the romance and sightseeing opportunities of a journey by train. Just try to make sure you get a window seat to capture the breath-taking views of snowy peaks!

@ McCabe's Forest Rail Track
“I could stay here forever, Mama Bunny,” said Mousey. “This is an amazing place!”
“Well, you never know what lies ahead, Mousey. I wouldn't be surprised if the next stop is even better!” said Mama Bunny.
McCabe's Forest Rail Track
Cold, bracing snowy weather is grand in theory. However, if your paws start to go numb and the chill creeps its way through your fur, it can start to lose its attraction. The answer is a train journey, where you can look out across sweeping white vistas or forests of trees lightly trimmed with snow, without having to get your scarf on!

@ Like a Bridge over Frozen Water
“I thought last night's house was amazing, lilycat," said Mama Bunny.
"Yes, it was spacious yet so cosy at the same time, Mama Bunny!" replied lilycat. "I loved the fire. It was so hyggelig!"
Like a Bridge over Frozen Water
Will your pet cross this ornate bridge or skate over the frozen river to the other bank? The bridge is set against a backdrop of bare trees, grey sky and far-distant mountains with a foreground of snowdrifts.

@ Frozen Lake Rink
“A picture of this would look lovely printed on Christmas cards, wouldn't it, Mama Bunny?” Salem said.
“It certainly would, Salem!" said Mama Bunny.
Frozen Lake Rink
Nowadays rinks of artificial ice are commonplace in all countries. In former times skating could only be enjoyed when the weather was cold enough to freeze a lake or river to thick ice, allowing skaters to enjoy a game of curling or ice hockey or just enjoy pirouetting on the chilly, frozen surface!

Episode 5/27

@ Waiting for Skating
“You have to admit, a modern train is faster and more comfortable than a steam train, Beast," said Mama Bunny.
"Yes, but look at all those ugly overhead wires it needs to run, Mama Bunny!" replied Beast. "Instead of beautiful plumes of smoke in the cold air!"

Waiting for Skating
Get your skates on! Whether you enjoy figure skating and the performance of spins, jumps and dance movements, speed skating or even ice hockey, proper skates are essential!

@ Train Pane
“You know what the best part of a day's skiing is, Gulliver?" said Mama Bunny.
"No, what?" replied Gulliver.
"The après-ski!" replied Mama Bunny.
Train Pane
One benefit of travelling by train as opposed to by car is the fun of being able to relax in one's seat and watch the passing towns and countryside.

@ Steep Alpine Sweep
“What have you got in your tote bag, Flutterbye?” asked Tweety Pi. “It looks very full!”
“I’ve come prepared for anything snowy, Tweety Pi,” responded Flutterbye. “There’s snowshoes, snow boots, Wellington boots, a pair of grippy things, some ear muffs—you name it, I’ve got it!”
Steep Alpine Sweep
Being in the mountains has a huge benefit on both our physical and mental health. Skiers will talk about the adrenalin rush of the slopes but also the pleasure gained from being in nature and having social interaction. Beyond the physical benefits, exposure to the natural surroundings of the mountains during exercise appears to provide an additional boost to our psychological well-being and aids in recovering from stress.

Episode 8/27

@ Snowboard Colour Splash
"This is fabulous, Snow Ball Fluff," enthused Mama Bunny. "I'll have this photo printed and framed and display it next to my plush reindeer that I got in the little gift shop near Snow Beach and the mother of pearl model of the Taj Mahal from Icon!"
"You'll have a fine collection of mementos, Mama Bunny!" said Snow Ball Fluff.
Snowboard Colour Splash
What can beat the pure thrill of snowy mountains in winter? Snowboarding through awesome mountains evokes a myriad of emotions, which are at a natural high at altitude – who better to share it all with than one’s fellow pets?

Episode 9/27

@ Ski Row
“You have to admit, a modern train is faster and more comfortable than a steam train, Jimmy," said Mama Bunny.
"Yes, but look at all those ugly overhead wires it needs to run, Mama Bunny!" replied Jimmy. "Instead of beautiful plumes of smoke in the cold air!"

Ski Row
After a tiring but exhilarating day on the slopes, it's time to doff our skis and enjoy the après ski evening, where we will cosily plot our next ski adventure! What plans we make! It's not necessary to have a lively party; a quiet hot milky coffee with two or three friends after a day's fun on the slopes gives us the chance to bond and get ready for the morrow's pleasures.

@ Snow Drift Ski Lift
“You know, this is really awesome, Mama Bunny!” said Ali Haider.
"It's very nice indeed—but you never know, the next leg of the tour might be even better!" said Mama Bunny.
Snow Drift Ski Lift
Skiing enthusiasts love it all, from the crisp, fresh bite of the air on arrival at the resort, the contrasting warmth of chalets; the icicles hanging from roofs; twinkling fairylights in the streets and the bursts of convivial laughter and applause from restaurants and bars where pets enjoy themselves after a day on the slopes!

Episode 11/27

@ Skiing Adventure Starts
“You know what the best part of a day's skiing is, Cashmere?" said Mama Bunny.
"No, what?" replied Cashmere.
"The après-ski!" replied Mama Bunny.
Skiing Adventure Starts
You and your fellow pets may prefer to mostly ski together, but perhaps sometimes the more advanced skiers will tackle a challenging route down the mountain and you then meet at the bottom of the slope. A shared love and appreciation for snow makes for the perfect, spectacular and memorable holiday on the slopes.

Episode 12/27

@ Stunning Snow Slope
“You know, this is really awesome, Mama Bunny!” said Coal.

Stunning Snow Slope
What does skiing mean for you? Is it rising with the sun; having the exhilarating crisp mountain air hitting your face, making a unique wake-up call! Let's not forget the huge sense of freedom as your skis cut through freshly fallen powder, merrily zigzagging down the slopes whooping, laughing and joking, then sitting on a peaceful ski lift putting the world to rights against the stunning backdrop of Alpine views.

Episode 13/27

@ Surpassing Slope
Mama Bunny and Chelsey had shaken paws and took some time to enjoy the super view in a companionable silence!

Episode 14/27

@ Heart Thumpin' Ski Jumpin'
“You know how some pets spend weekends at special old steam engine stations where they can volunteer to be a ticket collector or the guard, the firepet or even the driver? You don't get that with modern railways, do you?" said Icicle.
Mama Bunny pondered for a while. "Well, no," she conceded. "I can't say that modern trains have the same romance attached to them."
Heart Thumpin' Ski Jumpin'
You have to admire the engineering that's gone into this high ski jump. Is your pet brave enough to start at the very, very top and whoosh swiftly downwards?

Episode 15/27

@ Winter Skiing Holiday
“I always worry the ice will give way beneath me on these frozen lake rinks, Sweetums!" said Mama Bunny.
"The ICE is gonna BREAK!" replied Sweetums in a very passable Christopher Walken accent.
"That doesn't help allay my nerves," remarked Mama Bunny somewhat distantly.

Episode 18/27

@ Ski Spree
"Wasn’t it worth coming all this way, Mama Bunny," said Tester 3, "for this experience alone?"
Mama Bunny, admiring the scene they were now in, heartily agreed!
Ski Spree
What a thrill to race downhill, your momentum increasing as you go, and the only sounds in the clean, bracing mountain air being the swish of your skis on the crisp, pure white snow and the flurry of ice spray flung behind as you speed along.

Episode 19/27

@ Aurora Borealis in Snow Scene
“What do you get when you cross a skier and a vampire?" asked Mama Bunny.
"I don't know; what?" replied Choose a name.
"Frostbite!"
Aurora Borealis in Snow Scene
The aurora borealis, also known as the northern lights, is one of the most spectacular displays in the night sky. These changing light patterns have fascinated and inspired for centuries. These swirling patterns of turquoise, with the bright moon in the background and the snowy landscape in the foreground make this an amazing picture.

Episode 20/27

@ Sunset Rail Journey
“It's embarrassing to be staggering round the skating rink trying to get used to the boots and a young lemur sails past doing a pirouette, Choose a name," grumbled Mama Bunny.
"Practice makes perfect, Mama Bunny!" responded Choose a name.

Sunset Rail Journey
What a journey awaits on board this train travelling through pine forests! What lies beyond that tantalising bend round the corner? Sit back and enjoy the scenery as the sun tinges the treetops with golden light.

Episode 21/27

@ Coffee with Steamed Milk Flower
“It would be great fun to camp in the snow overnight, wouldn't it, poddu laddoo?” said Mama Bunny."In the morning you'd fill your kettle with snow and boil it suspended from a tripod of sticks, like they do in books."
poddu laddoo shivered. “Brrrrrrrr! I think it would be a little too cold, Mama Bunny! I like my creature comforts!"
Coffee with Steamed Milk Flower
It adds to the fun of going to your town's coffee shop: when your barista puts in front of you a hot, freshly made, foam-topped cappuccino, complete with beautiful artwork! What magic! A beautiful steamed-milk decoration looks like it must be very difficult to do, but once you get the knack, it really doesn't take very long to do at all! So make that drink look extra-special!

Episode 22/27

@ Spacious Family Room
“I always worry the ice will give way beneath me on these frozen lake rinks, Ringo!" said Mama Bunny.
"The ICE is gonna BREAK!" replied Ringo in a very passable Christopher Walken accent.
"That doesn't help allay my nerves," remarked Mama Bunny somewhat distantly.
Spacious Family Room
This living space is minimalist yet comfortable, providing plenty of seating for pets to sprawl out and relax, while the laminate floor offers opportunities for marble races! Plenty of light is admitted by two large windows overlooking the garden.

Episode 24/27

@ Serene Piano Room
Mama Bunny and swinger had shaken paws and took some time to enjoy the super view in a companionable silence!
Serene Piano Room
If you incline towards a clean, minimalist look, then white walls are the perfect base. The hallmark of this peaceful and uncluttered look is lots of white—particularly on the walls—with touches of muted brown, blue and cream on the elaborate rug also have a calming influence, while the view to the garden outside and the piano add a serene touch.

Episode 25/27

@ Cauliflower Soup with Cheese
“You know what the best part of a day's skiing is, Ronald?" said Mama Bunny.

Episode 26/27

@ Happy Hound
Mama Bunny is tired out and ready to go home when Puddle Rumchuckle comes along. "Wow! You find a special prize!" says Puddle Rumchuckle. Mama Bunny turns round and found it was just behind them!
Frosty Townhouse Facades
What is going on behind the stately facade of these town houses? Can you picture pets enjoying hot soup, trying on a new coat or scarf, playing games or just basking by the fire? Are their windows lit up with cosy glowing lights or do they have thick curtains drawn close against the wintry cold?
Happy Hound
Ah-h-h! Who wouldn't feel relaxed just looking at this blissed-out pet asleep on his favourite cushion in the light of the fire? "Contentment" just about sums it up!
