oh yeah we went to Banff
So it was a week ago, but still we went. We saw caribou (or was it elk?) I even went on the gondola. (which if you know I don`t go on first floor balconies easily with out having a minor panic attack! so this was a feat in itself.) Then we froze our tookas’ by going across the walk way at the top in the wind and blowing snow and Oldest Large Child proceeded to walk in every bit of snow she could find that was more than ankle deep (which was not at all hard as it was everywhere!), Wee Blonde Child continually asked if we cold go home now, and Healthy Weighty Wee Man, he just struggled to stay upright. It was cold. Really really cold and in my infinite wisdom, did not bring a hat for myself. My ears still hurt.
the pics are to come (they seem to be taking forever to upload).
(post edit) I gave up trying to up load the rest of the pictures so here is what I got so far….
he didn`t want his picture taken so this was the best I got!don`t ask the names of the peaks and mountains I dunno and didn`t find out!

Beautiful shots – these are making me homesick!
I can’t believe how close you got to the wildlife – amazing!
ps(love the pic of the candy-apple shop, this reminds me of the one in Robson St. Vancouver)
yeah that was Paul who in his infinate ignorance got so close…. I would have zoomed in.
ther are more pictures but I seem to be having issues uploading these days.
@wintersfamily - LOL, that sounds like my dad when we were in Banff. (Must be on the Y chromosome
