NEXT STOP BANFF 11,12,13/09/2017
Firstly we must apologies for the lack of blogs over the last frew days! Our itinerary had been full on and a lack of free WiFi in our Vancouver Hotel didn't help matters.
So to continue, on our return from the Lake Louise Gondola we returned to the hotel, sat outside for a while chilling and admiring the view and one final visit to the Gold Lounge for coffee and cookies.
About 3pm were we met by our next guide for the short transfer to Banff. He took us via Bow Valley Lake for another photo opportunity.
The hotel in Banff was OK but not quite up to the Fairmont Gold standard. Decided to go for a nice stroll around Banff and found a nice restaurant for dinner, as we had a fairly early start the next morning we decided that an early night was in order, our body clocks are still catching up.
New day, a good but basic breakfast set us up for a sightseeing tour with a slight difference. Linda our guide and driver for this tour concentrated more on the history of the area rather than the flora and fauna. She dropped us off at the foot of Sulphur Mountain (Interesting Wiki Link - Ed) where we took the gondola to the top of the mountain. The views from the top were even more awesome that we had in Lake Louise, we'll leave you to be the judge of that.
That about sums up this blog.Tomorrow sees us on the Rocky Mountaineer .
