Met a couple last night from Liverpool in a "Ye Olde Irish Pub" that sold Guiness and a good plate of Flannigans Liver & Onions and fish and chips for Caroline. The place was popular as we had to wait for a table... it was interesting to compare other people's adventures and experiences.
We returned to get an early nights sleep as this morning we would be driving for around 6 hours across from Banff to Kamloops.
The scenery changed as we headed west and saw the mountains slowly fade into the distance. Caroline took over driving after around 90 minutes and got used to the automatic car. A few smart accelerations left be buried into the seat, and felt like it would have been to be in the car from 'Back to the Future'.
However, soon after, we saw signs saying that we had crossed the time zone and we would need to turn our clocks back... so her driving worked after all. and now 8 hours behind GMT in UK.
another stop and I took over the driving. The rain, that had started earlier, eased only for 20 minutes before more heavy rain kept the wipers well occupied.
we arrived in Kamloops and checked into the hotel. We have just been out to explore the local restuarants and stock up with some snack food in preparation for our drive to Seattle tomorrow.
