Canada travels continue

 

I continue my posts with Canadian updates, one day soon there might be a photo with a bag or something in the sewing arena!!!

Josh has left Vancouver and is on his way to Banff. Stopping overnight, 36C even in the tent with a fan going?  I think it must run on the car battery or its own battery.

The scenery is stunning, the distances huge,  it  leaves our small country way behind with those majestic mountains all along. And still snow at the top.

A few photos from the last 2 days. These three are on the way near Kamloops.




These are near Revelstoke, where he is staying for a few days, Great opportunities with  a day pass with a gondola ride, a downhill ride in a cart on rails? axe throwing? and more. 




And we had a phone call, the miracles of communication.
As a Grandma I feel so honoured for the photos, messages and phone calls.

Quotation of the day , from our late Sir Edmund Hillary,

" Life's a bit like mountaineering-never look down"

Greetings from Jean.

Some info from the internet about the Dam.

Located only 5 km (3 mi) north of the city of Revelstoke, on Highway #23N, the Revelstoke Dam is one of the most powerful dams in British Columbia and the second largest generating facility on the Columbia River on the Canadian side of the border.
