Day 183 - 21st October 2018 - Mountains and Banff

A couple days of catch up. The adventure begins in security - Mom has things beeping as does her checked in luggage. After she flaps like a duck, jumps up and down they finally decide it's metal in her new boots. They took her hair gel (missed the scissors) and off we went. I needed Big B for that episode.  Well the plane ride was long, mostly smooth but a few road bumps- maybe they call it sky bumps. Finally made it to Calgary, found our hotel and crashed for the night only to wake up early the next day. We are somewhere between NS time and Alberta but probably not in either. Maybe it was the excitement or the very warm hotel room. Justin picked us up and we headed off to meet Jenny and some of her family for breakfast and then on to Banff! The mountains are everything people say and more, just beautiful. We spent the afternoon roaming downtown Banff, hit a couple of museums and then walked back to the hotel. It's far easier to walk than to drive if it's not too far and after sitting all day Friday it was good to stretch our legs. Supper at Chili's in the hotel and then Jenny and I tried out the hot pool - another fabulous experience. Today we are off to Lake Louise and hopefully the Gondola ride. Might even see some wild life!











Enjoy your day!
