Day 2



On day 2 we went to a boat tour, that turned out to be closed, so we drove around the lake. We went to Canada's oldest park, the Cave and Basin where the hot springs were originally found. Ate lunch in the city of Banff, shopped for snow boards, went back to the hotel for some swimming, and then went to a dinner show.

The "Oh, Cannada, Eh" Dinner show was very good. The Canadian food was good, although you had to add salt to make some of it good. They had split pea and ham soup, salad, roast beef, curry chicken, fried haddock, new potatoes, mixed vegetables, and marble cake with molasses icing. It was really some of the best food we've had in Canada. The show had lots of Canadian music, and a little bit of history, and info about the different regions of Canada. The actors were the servers as well. It was over 2.5 hours, and even Mason made it to the end, with a little break. Everytime he got bored they would bring out more food!

Wow that is just beautiful. I can not get over being that close to the Moose. I bet the boys love it!

Don't worry, we were in the car, and I have a pretty good zoom. Though other people got out of their car, and the moose headed straight toward them!
