Ok... I hate it when you type a bunch of stuff on here only to have it erased when you try and post it... thanks, travbuddy website. Anyway, as I mentioned in my last journal entry, Canada is the second half of my trip reserved for unlimited amounts of debauchery.  So, it would suffice to say that keeping record of my exploits during this time was the furthest thing on my mind... nor would I actually care to.  Let's just say that Canada is an amazing place with the largest amount o...

I spent the weekend at a friend's campsite on Christina Lake. The fishing and swimming were great and I can't wait to go back.

    (Thursday night) Before knocking ourselves out for the night, BS bugged Alynn whether we should move camp indoors or stay put, because the lightning was having its dance show in a distance, over the mountains. Around 3:15 am, BS awoke to find her sleeping bag a bit damp and noticed the cloudy sky looming above us, through the tent roof screen.

I live in Fort McMurray, which lacks a lot of services and stores, so I made a long list of things I needed and drove to Edmonton to buy them. The following pictures are what I saw along the way.

How boring this city?

In 2000, I decided I wanted to visit a few well-known national parks in Canada. A few years earlier I had been to Alberta and the eastern provinces and I really liked it alot.

Canada

Hello everyone, Two weeks from now I will be in London, hopefully finding a job and an apartment. I can't wait. I will miss everyone so much. Right now I am into packing, organizing and making lists of everything to bring. Amy and Wes were nice enough to let me have my choice of their backpacks for the journey, as I am trying to save some $. I will try to write my next entry with in a day or two of arriving in London.

Greetings Welcome to my TravelBlog

From Edmonton to Calgary, from Banff to Jasper, From Sylvan Lake to Lake Louise ... I welcome you to the Province of Alberta.

Nothing like a road trip from Seattle to Banff in a Jeep and camping gear!

It was soooo cold !!! More than in Chicago, but I loved that city !

Un rêve...

3 weeks in OZ not long enough.

CalgaryPetite fin de semaine dans la "civilisation". J'ai été voir un film avec Jérôme. 13$ mes amis pour voir Kill Bill. J'en ai au moins eu pour mon argent, mais câlisse, 13$!!! Quelques commissions, dimanche, avec ma blonde de 6e année! J'avais besoin de semelles pour mettre dans mes bottes de combats et d'un manteau imperméable. Je ne veux plus être trempé comme à ValleyView!!! Après centre d'achats et petit tour de la ville, cette adorable Karine m'a invité au restaurant. Quo...
