Day 32 & 33
Yesterday we had a relatively quiet day in Banff, did a tour around the town then went on the Gondola up to Mt Surprise which took us up to a height greater than Mt Kosciusko. It isn't till you visit places like the Rockies that you realize just how small our mountain ranges are in Australia and how little snow we get. The amount of fresh water lakes over her is phenomenal, all created from the winter snow. Finished the day off with a beautiful meal where I had a rib eye Buffalo (Bison) steak and Linda had a Duck breast both absolutely delicious.
Today it was a long day on the bus from Banff to Kelowna. Tomorrow is an even earlier start as we travel from Kelowna to Victoria and this involves a 1.5hr Vehicle ferry ride mid way through the day. We arrived in Kelowna at 4pm so Linda and I jumped into a taxi to take us to the Harley shop so I could buy the obligatory
T-Shirt. Haven't bought one for over a week so was getting withdrawal
symptoms. Will also try and get one in Victoria and Vancouver.
