Adventures in Canada thus far......



My sisters and I and all our bajillion kids went to Waterton Lakes National Park one day and we were so lucky to see this big honker moose. We were roasting salmon and hotdogs in the camp kitchen when the kids asked if they could run down to the lake to play. I had a feeling at first to just let them run off. Then I had a particular feeling that they shouldn't be alone so I went with them. Then Maysa had to use the washroom so I left with her. So Al came down to stay with the kids. Not more than a minute later, this gigantor moose comes out of the bushes and into the water. We watched it for a while and really kept a distance. It was a neat occurence.

These bikes are such a blast, we rented them for half hour but wished we would have had them longer. Elena and I and Maggie went on one and we were the fastest by far...... :)




Who doesn'l love ice cream in waterton. They loaded them up too big. We played at this beautiful little creek for a while. The weather was A plus.






We took 10 kids on a 1.6 mile hike. They did really good. We got to see
Blakiston falls at the end.

























Ellie held Maysa's hand for the entire hike. It was really cute. Ellie is 2

years older but they are almost the same size.

Oh that Moose is really cool too! And the bikes! I never got to rent those ever! And it looks like delicious icecream!... I guess what I'm trying to say is, "I really wish I was there instead of working my butt off in this blasted heat. Don't get me wrong I like the heat!

I love the moose picture! What a crazy experience. Looks like you are having fun. We just got back from San Diego and I'm DYING in this heat. So enjoy the weather while you can!
