Sandpoint to Calgary today. Gosh, further than it seemed on the map! We took the road over the Rockies via Kimberley - a Bavarian town - and through the Kootenay National Park to Banff and on to Calgary. We heard about this town - Kimberley - that had been dressed up like a Bavarian town to keep it alive through tourism. Very similar to a place we had seen on our first trip to Canada late 90's - Leavenworth in Washington - that had the same idea. Not sure who had the idea first, but whatever....
Calgary, Alberta, Canada judencharlieCalgary Stampede! Good looking cowboys in their leather chaps! Yuumy! It was fantastic. Lots and lots of people of course and whew, very expensive and set up to take every cent off you! Interesting though, we had expected to see stalls and stalls of western wear and in fact there were stalls and stalls of food with lots of people stuffing their faces! There were quite a number of free events on - of the agricultural variety - world stock dog championships, team penning and miniature horse chu...

Calgary, Alberta, Canada rossport... days before D-Day! Ask Katrine to stay home one day to help out on my to-do list. About 25 items on it. Guy who sold the bike calls and tells me he forgot to give me the original seat (yellow). My first choice of motorcycle was a 2005 model that had a lot of yellow on it. The one I bought is a 2004 model. This guy has had motorcycles all his life. He's an encyclopaedia of knowledge. We chat for a long time. He provides a wealth of information that will come ...
Calgary, Alberta, Canada cobra1899Well, it's been a LONG time since I have written here. Why? Well... a few things have changed in my life. It all goes back to that morning in Sydney back in October.... So, we had our Australian wedding October 13, almost exactly one year after our wedding here in Canada. We had a blast, the pics are AMAZING (thanks Paul!!), it was great to see everyone, and it was nice to be able to have John's family and friends be a part of our day. The day after the wedding ...
Calgary, Alberta, Canada incrediblelife... underneath. Would I ever go back? At first thought, no - but there are still two less-touristed islands that I missed out on. And I really did like some parts of the Canaries - perhaps if I ever happened to be in the area again, but given its location, that really isn't feasible. Scotland and England had their moments on this trip - but I'm not in a big hurry to return to the UK. But I know that I'll be there again soon, because it ...
