Forest Hike

Azure Beach House Perfection!
I so love the way you two travel--staying awhile, hiking and really getting to know a place; and what a slice of oceanfront perfection you found this time! I love that you name the flora and fauna, and consult that perfect travelers' friend, wikipedia--noting the differences in the otters, facts of bald eagles and random princes. Best wishes on your orca hunt!

Just checking to see if you managed to tear yourselves away from the vineyards?! As ever very interesting blog & great pictures. We finally have the last of our grandchildren-born 2 weeks ago, Reggie James. xx

Did manage to get away from the vineyards but took a 'few' samples with us. Congratulations on the birth of your grandson, Reggie James - what a lovely name. Lots of the old names coming back so much nicer that all those modern ones .....

Marmots...
Hi Paul and Sheila, Loved reading all about Whistler. We have been to Whistler- but only to ski! So it looks and sounds very different to when it is covered in snow and is so cold! We heard all about the marmots but never saw them (I'm sure that they hibernate?) and one of James' friends even gave me a plush marmot...but a marmot is no competition for my favourite of all animals, the suricate! I think that we will have to visit Canada in the Summer sometime. Simon is desperate to go to Canada for Christmas again but I think we will go a little closer to home to ski and keep it for another time. Simon has settled in smoothly to Middle School like Maisy and has become as cool as a cucumber! Jonathan is enjoying Gr4 and his South African male teacher! (Luckily he has been in the UK for the last 14yrs) His Africaans accent still lingers though... Hope you are both well and hope to see you when you are in Dubai again, love Rae

Christmas Already
Hi Rae - Thanks for your comments on the blog and yes Canada is really great. Glad to hear that Simon and Jonathan have settled into their new term I expect they have grown a little since I saw them last. Cannot believe that Christmas is around the corner it only seems like yesterday that we celebrated it in grand South African style at your lovely warm home. Will definitely catch up with you when we are in our 'second home' in Dubai with Sharon, Geoff and Maisie. Lots of Love P&SX

Johnson Canyon Lower Falls

Perfection everywhere!
You always find such great hikes and history. So, if you were to live there, would you choose Banff or Jasper?

Banff or Jasper
Hi Tara - It would be Banff for the town and museums but for the hikes it would probably be Jasper!!!!

Thanks for the history
We always love your stories and snapshot of history. You've seen so much on this trip you must be getting sensory overload. Keep traveling and be safe.
