After taking so many pictures (OVER 1400), just a few to give you a feel of what Canada & Alaska is about.
I have tried to place the photos in an approximate order of the places that we visited.
The whales were a definite highlight of holiday, especially the humpbacks breaching in the bay off Juneau.
There were so many places to see and it was great that we were on an organised tour. Our guide Jenni and the coach driver Lorne were a good double act and made some of the transfers between locations more interesting than just a coach trip.
Calgary Looking to the Rockies from the Calgay Tower
Lake MoraineWe had lunch here, before going to stay at the Chateau Lake Louise.
Emerald LakeThe sun came out here and the midges, a beautiful lake
Lake PeytoNamed after Wild Bill Peyto, the lake trail had just been opened to the public recently
Columbia IcefieldsA bit tragic that the icefields are retreating, I wander if we are contributing to its demise!!
Maligne GorgeTwo of the group, Geoff & Trevor at the Maligne gorge.
Spirit Island (Lake Maligne)Famous island on Lake Maligne. The weather was wet for the boat ride to the island but cleared enough for some photo opportunities.
Raft ride (Rear)We walked to Jasper when some of the group rafted, we waited for them at the landing point downstream
