Mountain View Inn Canmore

... Earth car again. We drove down a campground road and saw two mule deer. While we were taking picutres the Google Earth car drove past it. It seemed to be following us. <br><br>We came back to the lodge for a nap and then got ready for our dinner show O'Canada, eh! We had a really good time. <br><br>We are both tired and hope to sleep well because we are planning to visit Lake Louise tomorrow.

... the room with their dirty clothes. I find the accompanying oder adds a certain je ne sais quoi. It also came with lights going on at strange hours, Loud drunk looong conversations in the middle of the night, equally loud morning conversations, A Slight congested feeling that can only come from hours of exposure to a medley of B.O. and I would not be giving full credit to this majestic location if I failed to mention the ROAR of the train throughout the night

Travis, Andrew, JMac, and I played a lot of good golf this summer. Most of our games were in Kananaskis, for obvious reasons. It was always a nice treat to get out of the valley though. One of our superintendents used to work at the Canmore golf club and we were lucky enough to get to play this semi-private course. It was a glorious day and we were all in high spirits. We went ...

On Day 2, we drove south towards Athabasca Falls, then headed up a rocky, unpaved road to hike the Geraldine Lakes trail. We made it past the first lake and midway towards the second, finally turning around at a massive rockpile. Afterwards we went into Jasper for a dinner of Japanese food. Details in the photos!

... entries and beautiful photos. [/shameless plug] Anyway, my mom had been an empty nester for a few weeks when I came back. Then I left, and a few weeks later my younger sister Kim arrived home from Vancouver. At the end of August she moved to Toronto to do her Master's program here. So now my mom is finally getting a taste of freedom! Anyway, here are the beginning of the road trip photos. We left early in the morning, got to ...

Dean: Travelled from Edmonton to Jasper, which is one of the Canadian National Parks in the Canadian Rockies. Got the Greyhound here, which was meant to leave at 13:00 but left us all standing in a queue until gone 14:00 - no explanation, no apology - really **** service from Greyhound Canada. Anyway, Jasper is really great. We really like it. The first night (Tuesday) was spent in the hostel, but once again ...

... visit and all the medication cost me 71 pesos which is the equivillant of about 8 or 9 dollars Canadian. That was the cheapest doctors visit of my life. Teotiuacan from what I was able to remember was simply amazing. So massive and awe inspiring. I learned alot from the guide that day, as well as from all the books I have on the subject at home. I would love to go back one day. I went back to the hostel and went to bed. We got up at 4 am to get a cab. The cab ride was cool ...

Well I am almost packed. I went out and got a waterproof disposable camera, tons of film, a new camera case, rechargable batteries and some mp3 headphones. Dont worry - nothing is worth too much. I am only taking 4 bikinis...the absolute minimum!!! We are going to mec before we leave so Jesse can get some sandals. I have to keep telling myself that I cant spend too much money here- I would rather spend it over there. Only 2 more days ...
