Mount Lady Mc Donald und ab nach Banff
Leider musste ich heute dieses tolle Hostel verlassen, weil sie über das Wochenende ausgebucht sind. Auf das Hostel in Banff, wo ich im Moment mit supervielen furchtbar coolen Typen im Aufenthaltsraum abhänge, hätte ich gerne verzichtet... :oS
Banff ist einfach nicht mein Fall, ich weiß auch nicht, warum hier immer alle hinwollen... naja, zumindest sind dann diese Leute nicht woanders, sondern hauptsächlich hier ...
