Whatever Wednesday - Athabasca Glacier


 Got to ride in the Arctic Terrain vehicle up  to the Athabasca Glacier.  Very impressive piece of equipment.  Our driver  was a lad from Blackpool,  England.  
Another gorgeous day and while  cool, it  was not bitter cold

Avoid the slush parts.   (oops, Ray did step in a melty spot and  got his shoe, sock, and pants leg wet. Silly boy
The ice chunks were SO clear
I'll pose happily with the Maple Leaf.   Oh Canada!  You filled my heart with  joy

    I'm so glad you two conquered Banff/Canada in this adventurous way - really going to the extreme and getting the full maple leaf experience. Cheers to that. Bask in many great memories.

      It was very cool to experience. Sad that it will be gone in fifty years. You would probably be shocked to see it.
