June 1, The weather has cleared and it’s not smokey, the sun has shone all day it was in the high 70’s. People where swimming, kayaking, board paddling and boating. Went for a couple of walks around the lake, saw a yellow headed blackbird, which I would of had my camera, just relaxed most of the day, the campground is full, hopefully everyone doesn’t decide to leave when we are ready tomorrow morning.
June 2, Left the campground around 9 am, drove north until we hit Route 1, The Canadian Highway, and then west, drove through Calgary, continuing on Route 1 and continuing on Route 1 until we got to the station to get into the Canadian Rockies. We paid for 3 day passes for each of us, paid $38.70 for both. We then stopped to camp at Banff, paying $37.14 for 1 night, full hookups, we didn’t make reservations hoping to get in for one night, no problem. The prices I quoted are US exchange. We drove into Banff, really crowded with people and vehicles everywhere. We stopped at Tim Horton for dinner, the last time we where here we saw an elk bed down right outside the diner. We then fueled up paying around $5.00 per gallon and found a carwash to wash the truck. Returned back to camp and took a walk, and took pictures of the mountains around us. It’s after 10 pm and still daylight out, right now we are 2 hours behind the east coast.
