Birgit, Mayo and I went to the Jasper National Park today. It was Mayo's first time in the National Park. We drove to Jasper Town to pick up our lunch in a bakery which makes tasty things like cookies, danish pastry, biscotti,... As soon as we had what we want we hit the road again. This time we went to the Valley of the five lakes. The weather wasn't the best, rain, clouds and sunshine. It was a 1 1/2 hours walk around the lakes. A nice view... which made me wish I could go for a ride on horse back here... (You are only allowed to ride a horse in the park with a permit) Our next stop was the Athabasca falls. Impressive like the last time, the water flows strong and fast down the falls... brave water drops... ;) Here were a lot of tourists !!! Unbelievable, how some of them were dressed ! One woman wore high heels !!! We took off to the Columbia icefields, just to see there was more rain, more tourists and a crowded gift shop. Then, was it time to go home again, all of us were tired. It's an 1 1/2 hours drive from Jasper to the Falling Star Ranch.
