Martes!


Hi!

Martes de nuevo  (again it is Tuesday)

(you can click the image for a better view) 

Temperatures are on the rise, I really needed to cool down a bit here in Spain.

What could be better than to show the above dyptich? No warm summer colours this time and with a little bit of imagination one can almost feel the cold from the Athabaska glacier on the left...

We visited the Icefield Parkway in Alberta (Canada) back in 2009. It was our first summer trip with our newly purchased motorhome and we were traveling together with our eldest son, who had joined us in Seattle. We drove from Jasper to Banff and had a fantastic time. In fact it was the Icefields Parkway that made it very special: as a natural park the whole area was pure nature, no houses, no bill boards, just some traffic signs where necessary. 

A landscape that is hard to find these days (imho)...

The picture on the right is of the Athabaska falls, it is said not to be the widest or tallest, but the most powerfull!


There is a lot of info on these sites

Ah: Lake Louise, Peyto Lake, Johnston Canyon and so much more,

...sweet memories...

Have a lovely day!

Hi mom,

Indeed sweet memories! I remember these 'Inkpots' on one of my evening hikes as well.

Very nice!
