JULY 17, 2012----BANFF, ALBERTA, CANADA

Today was a travel day.  We headed to Banff and Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada.  We have a very short drive today, only 73 miles.  Didn’t get started until noon.  We had to stop for a 3 day pass to the National Parks before entering Banff.  Got to the campground around 3 PM, settled in and went to our caravan’s social hour. 

Around 6:30 several couples got together and went out for a short ride to see if we could see any animals.  No luck for us,,,maybe tomorrow we’ll see something.  We did stop by the Bow Falls (a cascading waterfall).  Got some pictures and then the mosquitos decided to join us. 

We then headed into the town of Banff.  What a beautiful town right at the foot of the mountains.  The buildings here are beautiful. We will have to come back again tomorrow and walk around more.  We got an ice cream cone and headed back to the campground.  Tomorrow should be a full day of touring.  We have a free day and will be on our own to sightsee.
