our last days of the trip:

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 north [...]

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 [...]

Saskatoon, Regina

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 we [...]

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 the [...]

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 get cold, [...]

getting the motorhome, off to Banff!

Sept. 10th – Calgary, Banff

We went for some breakfast at McDonalds (McGriddle – a pancake-cheese-syrup type of thing, yummyyyy!!) and then called a cab to get to Cruise Canada. It was not far from Derek’s place. so he came along with us. The C25 we booked wasn’t available yet, if we wanted to leave right [...]
