Shawn au Canada - Journal




on to Alberta....

We enjoyed our drive from BC onto the next provice of Alberta.

We went to Banff, to do some radical snowboarding. There was a race I entered. I came in 1st, of course. I have been practicing for 5 years, while the others, have only started racing this year. It was cold, but sunny. We went into the lodge and warmed up on delicious Hot Chocolate, sprinkled with cinnimon. Went back home to the camper and then we were on the road again.

We headed for Calgary. In 1988 they hosted the Winter Olympics. In the Olympic Park,you can see all the buildings that were built for it and are still being used. Like the Luge run, very cool.

We then went to famous Drumheller. It is 150 km from Calgary and is home to the world famous Royal Tyrrell Museum of Paleaeontology. We went digging for bones and found a T-Rex tooth. I called over the paleaeontologist, Dr. Bob. He said it wasn't really a dig, but a special kids area to see what it is like to dig for bones. Dr. Bob said I could keep my tooth for a souvenier.

After a long day, it was time to hit the sack and get a good rest for the rest of our journey.
