Trip accross the rockies

Me and my room-mate decided to take a road trip to the rockies since she is leaving to do some more travelling.

We started in Valemont and stayed in the Ramada.  It was so amazing and we could just walk out our balcony into the pool and hot tub which was seriously cool.  Once we had settled in we went out for a bit to eat the Cariboo restaurant.  It was your typical in the sticks restaurant and i think that the whole village was there that night.  After our dip in the pool we went to bed since we had been driving all day.

Next up was Jasper and Lake Louise. On the way there we had to stop as there were3-4 cariboo and a bull cariboo. It was so amazing to up this close to such stunning animals.We stayed in the Hi Lake Louise which was amazing and it was so good you would not think that it was a hostel.  We got hope early to do hike the tea house and it was so worth it as we were the first ones up to the top which meant that we had a great opportunity to get great pics without having anyone get in our way.

Words cannot describe how amazing the views are. You really need to be there to experience it yourself as there are just no words to describe it.

We went to the Icefields after seeing the Lake Louise and it is really sad to see just how global warming is affecting places like this. It is just heartbreaking that it is slowly disappearing from our lives at such a rapid pace.  

Next on the list was Banff. We did lots more sightseeing. We went to the Banff hot springs which was super cool being in a spring when its cold outside looking at the snow capped mountains.Each place that we go to is more stunning than the last.  We did this boat trip over the lake which was so amazing to be out on the lake and seeing all the mountains in all thier glory.

Our last stop on this amazing trip was Kelwona.  We didnt really do that much there it was more just a stop over to break up the trip.  There was however a canadian version of the Loch Ness Monster


Great road trip and almost 3000km travelled
