"Beautiful British Columbia" - so it is in any event entitled to the car license plates that province. And yes, it's really true. Since yesterday evening, so we are on the "Street" and pave our way from Vancouver to Whistler, Kamloops and Jasper to Lake Louise in Alberta. Already about 60 km north of Vancouver, we have filed our first stop in Squamish because the clock had already half-beaten 10th We had previously a cheap room for 2 people booked in a hotel. As we to 3 Are we now change our every day who have to sleep on an insulating mat. Even if you do not quite believe in Germany like, but this way we come off even slightly better price than in a "favorable" Hostel to stay.
Upon arrival we went a little strolled through the small village in the mountains for something to eat. Incredibly, we are in the middle of the road encountered by a foraging black bear - luckily he has not seen us, but even if we have indeed all-powerful bear spray! Theoretically, I could now go back home because my goal to find a bear I've achieved already, but I think I will still continue to be here to maybe make a moose identified.
After a restful night at the Chieftain Hotel in Squamish was the daily goal for the evening about 400 km away, "Kamloops". About 10 clock in the morning we sat back in the car and wanted on the way to Kamloops to make sure another trip to the internationally renowned Whistler. Said - done. It is exactly as you would imagine: relatively small, many tourists, surrounded by mountains and several ski lifts for mountain bikers currently available. A visitor pass to drive up to one of the mountains cost about $ 45, so quite a mouthful. Had we had more time and money we would have probably borrowed in any case, mountain bikes and then an overpriced day pass would have bought for the lifts. But maybe you have to yes again later occasion.
After about 2 hours Whistler sightseeing we were back on the road. The scenery was just breathtaking to Kamloops, and we have not even arrived in the Rocky Mountains. Mountains, rivers and lakes as far as the eye. To 19 clock we arrived after a total of 9-hour long tour here in Kamloops. The city is a popular stop for travelers heading Rocky Mountains and looks much drier than Whistler and Squamish. Upon arrival we first bought a few beers and then went to "Dairy Queen" something to eat. This time we are housed in a motel which is about the same price range as yesterday's hotel meets. And in this motel, I'm sitting right now with a well-known beer brand, "Granville Brewing Iceland.
Tomorrow morning it goes further into the approximately 450km north-east in the middle of Jasper "Jasper National Park. Let's hope that there will be beautiful to look so many photos!
I would be very happy times to hear some news from home.
Oh yes - there are new photos.
