The trip to Canada

Saturday, April 26, 2008

Hi all, it has been a while since my last post so i thought i should let you all know what has been happening over here in Canada.

It has been snowing most days since my last post, so i haven't had much of a chance to get out and about as it's too dangerous and i'm not taking any chances.














here are some pictures of the snow, the picture on the left is just trees on Banff avenue, i got excited because it was the most snow i had seen so far, it was so pretty, but so cold. the picture on the right is a snowman one of the guys at the hostel made in the courtyard.

A couple of days ago i went for a walk along the Fenland trail, which is a 2km trail just outside of Banff. It was really pretty there, but everything was still all white and covered in snow. Its quite funny when you go for a walk through the trees because every corner you turn around you here this really strange sound, i was told that its the chipmunks that make that noise, they are so cute.







I have been in the hostel for a little over 3 weeks now, which is a little crazy, and i must say that the people here have been great. Here is a picture of me and Lyneth, the girl I have been hanging with for the past few weeks, this chick is so awesome, she's from Ottowa, it's going to be sad when she leaves this week. This pic was taken at Hoodoos at one of the $1 highball nights, we look very happy because we did four double vodkas in just one hour, so it was a fun night, but a short night for me hehe.




The other night we went out to a ladies night where they had a fashion parade, but we really went for the free food and 25% discount off all the clothing. I won a box of chocolates which was awesome!!

I worked this morning, i am liking it there, there are three of us, me Luke and Dale that work together, we decided to call ourselves the A-team because we think we are the only three on the staff who are any good at serving.

Yesterday (Friday) and today (Saturday) it has finally decided to get sunny, so i'm excited, the ice and snow in melting, so i'm hoping to go on some decent hikes this week!!

Ok well you are all now pretty much updated on life in Canada for this week.
