    Revelstoke - Full Day

    September 6, 2017 in Canada ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C

    We are staying in the most lovely of B&B's just on the outskirts of Revelstoke. So friendly and we had the best breakfast of canadaian waffles, maple syrup, fresh fruit to set us up for the day. The plan for the day was to go into hte national park, making use of our free pass for Canada's 150 years of independence... to make the drive to the meadows in the skyway. The drive was beautiful, sadly the smoke from the forest fires did mean we could only see so far, but did not make it any the less impressive. When we arrived at the car park, we did see that there had been a recent bear sighting... some of the other people visiting would definitely have scared any bear off. Need Mrs PC say anything else.... After a lovely hike to the top of the mountain we headed down the mountain and stopped off at the inspirational wood, also amazing, before heading back to our B &B after having had a lovely avalanche ice cream... yum so big though I couldn't eat it. Off for dinner shortly, thank you to our B& B host who is kindly letting us do some washing so we don't run out of clothes. I did say to Alan (Tig) that we could always buy some new t shirts.. which I think we will do before heading off to see the wolves and yoho national park tomorrow. Hope everyone is okay and enjoying their trips or working...Read more
