Summer Road Trip:

So Frank and I have settled on the dates of our Alberta road trip for the summer and made several reservations already ( and a good thing we did because the places we want are booking up fast! ), and here is is so far:

  • July 11th: Pack up and hit the road about 9 pm, we prefer to drive at night when its cooler and a lot less traffic!
  • July 12th & 13th: Stay at the Ramada Inn, visit with Papa ( hopefully take him out for dinner ), shop a bit and then visit Papa some more.
  • July 14th: Make our way to Calgary via Drumheller. No real specific time frame here but plan to be in Calgary by late afternoon early evening.
  • July 15th: Spend the day in Calgary, make our way up to Edmonton, plan to spend the night as close to the city as possible.
  • July 16th: We have reservations to spend the night in the African room of the Fantasy Land Hotel in West Ed. We were given water park passes with our room so plan to take full advantage of them!
  • July 17th: Take a leisurely day for shopping and fun.
  • July 18th & 19th: We have reservations st the Inns of Banff where we plan to take a canoe trip ( thanks Lesley! ), ride the Gondola and be tourists.
  • July 20th: Pack up and head home, should arrive home on July 21st.

If there is anything we should try to do/see on our trip please let me know, we are open to suggestions, and for any family members, if you are interested in a get together, let me know and we can try to work something out!

Did I forget to mention that three people will be on this trip? Frand and I of course, and his niece Sara is comming as well, and she is 15 years old tomorrow.
