Mr. & Mrs. O'Brien arrived in Canadia with no issues and we grabbed a shuttle to the hotel where we took a dip in the pool and got an early night's sleep. The hotel pool had a two story fully enclosed corkscrew waterslide which we played on with the other 10 year olds.
We got up fairly early to get our car and start exploring this strange land. I must say the drive has been beautiful but we are still trying to adjust to the quirks of the culture; it's almost like a different country! They have this very strange thing called the metric system, I'll try to figure out how to explain it and tell you more in a later post.
Anyway we arrived in Banff shortly after 11am. Here's proof:
The first thing we did was find a nice coffee shop with internet access and put up a few pictures. Debbie had some organic chai tea (extra foam). The coffee shop is the Wild Flour Bakery. We are about to spend some time walking around town. Here's Deb outside the coffee shop with the Rockies in the background.

Looks like you're seeing beautiful scenery. Hope you have a very relaxing day tomorrow and the weather is great for the Hot Springs.
