We got back “home” safely yesterday, but I’m so horribly homesick…. our last days of the trip: Sept. 26th – Regina I had a good night sleep and woke up with a clear head again, yeah! Jack, Tim’s dad, came by to pick us up to go to Lumsden in “the valley”. This valley is about 30 km [...]

Regina – Wascana Park

Sept. 25th – Regina Unfortunately the migraine is still there! I was so hoping to meet more people at the show at the Gaslight tonight, but I’m too sick to go We did go for breakfast with Jack and I layed down after that. Later on we went downtown, hoping some fresh air would do [...]

Saskatoon, Regina

Sept. 23rd – Saskatoon In the early afternoon we went to Saskatoon, because there was an extra gig for Dirtbred (also from Regina) and Into Eternity (support: Sparky from Saskatoon)! YAY!

last days in Banff, back to Calgary

Sept. 19th (part 2) – Banff After we last update, we also strolled along Banff Avenue and finally found a Canada sweater that’s big enough for me (and I thought they’d have a lot of big sizes here, like in the States!), we finally found a copy of the “Parkways Of The Canadian Rockies” book [...]

Jasper, Maligne Lake, elk herds on the campground

Sept. 14th (part 2) – Jasper When we drove back to the campsite, we had our first “animal-jam”, awwww… A few cars had pulled off the road to take a picture from two elks near the road, and a few minutes later the animals slowly crossed the road. Everyone drives carefully around here, elks cross [...]

Bow Valley, Lake Louise, Moraine Lake, Icefields Parkway

Yeaaah internet access again, here in Jasper… here’s the update of the diary since Banff and 2 new (veeeery beautiful) photoalbums! Sept. 12th – Bow Valley Parkway We had a good long sleep, we’re finally catching up – or is it the fresh mountain air? They gave us extra sleeping bags because the nights could [...]

Calgary
