Rocky Mountaineer
For the last twenty years, the Rocky Mountaineer has wound its way from Vancouver to Jasper or Banff. It follows the Fraser River and then the Thompson River up to the Rocky Mountains. Yesterday’s trip brought us to Jasper. We decided to throw caution to the wind and get the gold leaf class, for photographic reasons of course. The glass dome allows for great viewing. It wouldn’t have been for the fine dining in the dining car or complimentary drinks for two days – of course not.
Bibbulmun Track
This time two years ago (November) we finished the Bibbulmun Track in Western Australia. The 967 kilometres of walking track goes from Kalamunda in Perth to Albany on the South Coast. The nine weeks we were walking proved both a physical and mental challenge. It still stands up as one of the best things we have done.
