For 9 days, we were free from work and domestic duties and off on a whirlwind road trip in our new subee. We started with 3 days in Kelowna, visiting the Haywards and relaxing poolside. Then were we were off for a couple nights of camping in Lake Louise, which is an incredible place - "God's country" as a lady from California we met while hiking repeatedly said. Then it was off to the Calgary stampede. Never been to a rodeo before, but it was pretty darned exciting, even for a couple of vegetarians. Next it was off to Red Deer to visit Fran's brother and his feonce. Here we enjoyed fantastic hospitality, the opportunity to relax and kick our feet up while watching an impressive DVD collection on an impressively large flat screen TV - also, a great meal at Original Joes (photo). We began our journey home with a trip through Edmonton (picked up some fresh CDs at the huge mall: new Thom Yorke & a classic Stevie Wonder) and Jasper before spending a night in Clearwater. All said, we covered 2500kms and had some good times. More time next time...
