This morning was as expected, for me anyway! Max enjoys the benefits of youth and last nights sampling of the beer menu has had no side effects whatsoever however, I cant say the same for my old frame!! As a result it was a slow and heavy start and we didn’t leave Jasper until after 11am. The upside of the day however is that we got to ride the famous Icefields Parkway<\/a> which is considered one of the most beautiful and scenic roads in the world, that traverses through the Canadian Rockies. To add to it all it was a beautiful dry day so we got to enjoy the best that this route has to offer.<\/p>\n

Lunch was at an obscure stop; a little roadside restaurant in the Rockies where we were asked if we were familiar with the \u201ccook it yourself\u201d experience? I have never been to a \u201drestaurant\u201d where they sell you the ingredients and make you go stand over a grill and cook it yourself. Its not quite like fondue (before my chirpy Swiss friends jump in-you know who you are!!)! Anyway, we came to the conclusion that we were starving and lunch couldn’t be put off so we pressed on with the experience and self congratulated ourselves at the end. Compliments to the chef old chap!!<\/p>\n

We are spending the night at the Post Hotel<\/a> in Lake Louise, a beautiful destination where we will be for the next 2 nights. Incredible restaurant and wine cellar and HIGHLY<\/strong><\/em> recommended to anybody coming to this part of the world!<\/p>\n

Considered one of the largest and most comprehensive cellars in North America. Really worth visiting if you are a wine fundi!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
