Quick check in

It's 11:30 pm and we're just finally getting ourselves installed in tonight's hotel room (another nice one, this time in Canmore, Alberta, just down the road from Banff). We expected to be here HOURS ago (literally), but got off to a rough start this morning.

I'll save the details for tomorrow when I have a little more time and I'm not as tired with an early morning facing me. Suffice it to say, it was almost a REALLY bad PCS and we're thankful to have been able to get out of Jasper and get here tonight. Sadly, we didn't get to spend the time in Banff that we really wanted to, but we'll probably get over it eventually.

Meanwhile, in the wildlife count, we added a TON of elk to the count today... too many to actually count, in fact. But the best one was the one that crossed the road literally right in front of us when we were finally heading out of Jasper. And all she wanted was the little clump of flowery-weeds on the other side of the road.

The views were spectacular, but I'm not 100% sure any of them translated well to a camera... the weather was pretty overcast and not great, so we'll have to see on that. Again, it's too late to get to that tonight!

Tomorrow we head out of here bright and early for our last Canadian leg. We'll spend tomorrow night back in the Lower 48!!! Hopefully the weather will cooperate and I'll get some good shots as we drive the Going to the Sun Road through Glacier National Park... we're definitely looking forward to it!

That's all for tonight. I promise I'll share the stories of our Jasper delay tomorrow!
