Afternoon Reflections in the Great Bear Rainforest
Just a quick post this morning…the water was so calm on our trip through the Great Bear Rainforest and this is just the first of many reflection shots. This one was taken as we were heading back to the boat after an afternoon on the zodiac.

My Great Bear Rainforest Adventure – Part 1 (Pics Only Version)
Once we arrived in Hartley Bay, British Columbia to meet the boat, Great Bear II, our adventure in the Great Bear Rainforest took us through some of the most spectacular scenery one could ever hope to see. It was nature at its best and I feel so lucky to have witnessed it. My country is…

Somewhere on the Douglas Channel
Back in Prince Rupert tonight and then on to Vancouver in the morning for a few more days of vacation. This was taken on the way back to Hartley Bay to catch the seaplane to Prince Rupert. It was a spectacular week – can’t wait to share the pictures!

I’ve been on some pretty cool drives in North America – Maui’s Road to Hana, the Beartooth Highway outside Yellowstone, and Port Alberni to Tofino on Vancouver Island. They all are amazing in their own way and the drive between Banff and Lake Louise is no exception. Banff will always be one of my favourite…

grey morning
It’s a grey morning here today… it matches the sky in these pictures from my trip to Banff at the end of October. These were taken on the drive from Kananaskis to Banff which is really scenic (even on a dull, grey, snowy morning).

Mount Edith Cavell con’t
Here is one more Mount Edith Cavell pic. It’s definitely a must do in my opinion if you’re visiting Jasper.
