It's funny, you'd think coming up with something witty, engaging and interesting would be easy - especially after a day of cycling when your mind does nothing but think about, well... everything. Then again...I did just complete 969.51km over the past 9 days... and oh what a journey.
The highlights from today:
- seeing 2 more bears - the picture in this post is mine... thanks to a good zoom on my cam - trust me I wasn't even close to it.
- spotting a white tailed deer
- crossing into Alberta and leaving British Columbia
- seeing more snow covered mountains everywhere
- knowing that from here on in... the journey will be downhill (for the most part)
- hearing that snow is in the forecast (this made me laugh)
Anyway, tomorrow I will be taking a MUCH deserved and needed day off from cycling. Staying at the hostel in Lake Louise. Probably will go hiking - you know I can't stay still.
Thank you for reading this blog... I appreciate your comments, and encouragement.
Peace and bicycle grease (from Alberta).
1000 "clicks" in 9 days thru the Cdn Rockies is one helluva accomplishment Nathan. Way to go!A well deserved break. Enjoy your day :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Doug and by my count Alberta looks like I'll manage it in 5 or 6 days... but only time will tell.
ReplyDeleteI must say I really enjoy reading your blog...That was quite a large bear. Sure glad that it did not snow. Enjoy your time in Lake Louise area and Banff.Take care. Be safe.
