New Brunswick welcomed me back with torrential arms. Good to be back home almost 15,000kms later. Nateva up next!
Finally found a city with worse roads than Saint John. The holder of this prestigious title? Sudbury, ON.
Why am I in Minnesota? The GPS thought it would save me some time, all of which was lost while customs agents rummaged through my stuff.
The main difference between National & Provincial Parks? No white hat-wearing morons blasting Nickelback next door at a National Park.

Alberta Bandlands - Drumheller
Some pictures taken over my last couple of days in Alberta before heading east. I got to spin through Banff one more time and Rob and I got to ride the gondola and have our cheesy picture taken. Some nasty rain was moving in from Lake Louise, so we didn’t get to head up to Samson’s Peak, but the view was fantastic. Headed to Calgary to visit Aunt Wendy and Uncle Jeff, and my cousins Melissa and Hilary. Had a long drive to Saskatoon but I broke it up with a trip to the Royal Tyrrel Museum in Drumheller. Lots of amazing dinosaur skeletons and fossils - the T-Rex above had his own room. Still lots of flooding happening in both Saskatchewan and Manitoba, which is why I had to head north through Saskatoon. The Trans-Canada between Medicine Hat and the Saskatchewan border was closed until today.
Back in SK, avoiding floods. Banff Gondola & Bikefest, Erb family in Calgary yesterday, Drumheller dino museum today. Duck Mtn tomorrow.
In Yoho. Saw Takakkaw and Wapta Falls, Emerald Lake and the train through the spiral tunnels. Banff tomorrow - all signs point East.
