Today
we did different activities in the morning. I went on Bow River float where I saw
an elk (possibly), two Harlequin ducks and an osprey. Elizabeth went on a nature walk which was both
peaceful and informative, during which she saw a ground squirrel, a robin and
lots of mosquitoes.
After returning to the hotel we went into Banff and visited
the Parks information Centre. It was restored in the original design of local architecture
meets Victorian taxidermy. For a small space they did a remarkable job to fit
in as many exhibits as possible.
Next on our list was the Buffalo Nations Luxton Museum. This
is presented as a stockaded fort. It was a suprisingly interesting place which
informative exhibits and it had excellent virtual reality technology where it
seemed like you were amongst a herd of bison and it seemed like you just reach
out and touch them.
Elizabeth bought a cashew Log from the Fudgery. An amazing store and you put on weight on by just
walking in.
Tonight we went to the Waldhaus restaurant. Both Elizabeth
and I had a Cornish game hen that was emu sized – too big but cooked to
perfection.
