KAMLOOPS TO VANCOUVER | ROCKY MOUNTAINEER | CANADIAN ROAD TRIP 2016

This was very much an exciting day; our last one on the Rocky Mountaineer, to our penultimate destination of the trip (Vancouver) where we were going to my Great Aunt's house for the first time.    We slept fairly well in Kamloops, but I always find that whenever I have to wake up early it hinders me being … Continue reading KAMLOOPS TO VANCOUVER | ROCKY MOUNTAINEER | CANADIAN ROAD TRIP 2016

LAKE LOUISE TO KAMLOOPS | ROCKY MOUNTAINEER | CANADIAN ROAD TRIP 2016

Part of the reason I had wanted to do a complete cross country journey, was to travel over the Rocky Mountains. What better way to do it, than by train?   https://www.instagram.com/p/BE4ts7SELXl/?taken-by=travelteatv   We woke up bright and early in our hotel, The Lake Louise Inn, got ourselves up and ready, then simply walked outside … Continue reading LAKE LOUISE TO KAMLOOPS | ROCKY MOUNTAINEER | CANADIAN ROAD TRIP 2016

So, apparently it's rare for people to take a taxi from Banff to Lake Louise. I'm still not 100 percent … Continue reading HIKING IN LAKE LOUISE | WAIST DEEP IN SNOW | CANADIAN ROAD TRIP 2016

HORSE RIDING IN BANFF | “CASPER THE FRIENDLY HORSE” | CANADIAN ROAD TRIP 2016

After a long day of flights, hikes and country music, ending in a damn good sleep in a hotel in Banff, we woke up ready for more...    We got up bright and early, getting straight back into our active wear (as you do in Banff) and made our way over to the stables, which are … Continue reading HORSE RIDING IN BANFF | “CASPER THE FRIENDLY HORSE” | CANADIAN ROAD TRIP 2016

MONTREAL TO BANFF | “ALRIGHT FOR SOME” | CANADIAN ROAD TRIP 2016

We left for the airport bright and early, arriving at just the right time to check in for our flight to Calgary - we would usually check in ahead of time, but hadn't stressed too much about it for once. It wasn't until we reached the departure gate that I realised this could be any kind of … Continue reading MONTREAL TO BANFF | “ALRIGHT FOR SOME” | CANADIAN ROAD TRIP 2016
