Alaska -- Day 16

Today was a travel day, from Lethbridge to Banff National Park. We are in the same campground area we stayed in 8 years ago. Then I saw a grizzly bear walk through the campground. Today John saw an elk as we drove from the park entrance to the campground. Hopefully, we will continue to see wildlife here.

I guess Alberta farmers have happy farms.



The farms must be very old, since we see lots of old buildings like these.





As we drove through Calgary, we saw the Calgary Olympic Park, built for the 1988 Olympics. We have both downhill skied and so have Doug and Eric. But I don’t know if any of us would have tried going down one of these.



Again today, we saw lots of beautiful mountain scenery.





The entrance to Banff National Park is old and quite attractive.



We thought we were here very early in the season, at least until we walked around on the downtown streets.
