Thanksgiving 2010

Oh, way overdue on this posting.
Our family travelled to Canmore, Alberta some from BC, some from Manitoba and from Alberta for the Thanksgiving weekend. Unfortunately our car developed a mechanical problem and we had to stop for a quick repair in Calgary before moving on. We all booked in at the Poccaterra Inn where we again enjoyed the pool (with fast waterslide), hot tub, great complementary breakfasts and ping pong in the games room. The area is breathtakingly beautiful and everyone got out to hike a local trail.

It was fun to watch the cousins re-connecting after a year, as though no time had elapsed. They spent hours in the pool and slide, running the hallways and just hanging out. The energy was pretty impressive.

Family times like this are memory makers and we returned home after a quick visit to the Okanagan to see Tannis & Jer and the family in their home, and spending an ovenighter with Mark & Roel in Calgary.
p.s. we have the best family ever.

That was a great trip.

Any plans to update the blog on this year's DR adventure?

Will try Jer, but still running into problems with uploading photos. Rather than actual images, get only gobbledy-gook. Will keep experimenting.
