Trip to Canadian Rockies

Sixteen hours from now, I will be boarding a plane heading to Calgary, Alberta. Yipee! I have yet to pack my suitcase or figure out what to bring. Mitts, check, tuque, check, camera, check, plane ticket, check. Looks like rain is in the forecast for this week (rainjacket, check) but that certainly won't spoil my fun. I'm meeting up with my parents in Calgary tomorrow night. We will be heading up to Jasper the next morning via the Icefields Parkway. I can't wait to see the Rocky Mountains! I've only ever seen them from an airplane window when I was flying to Vancouver and that was only for a few minutes. What I'm looking forward to most is seeing this part of Canada for the first time with my parents - a full week spent hiking mountains, visiting glaciers and hot springs, and hopefully seeing lots of wildlife. Wow.

On Thursday night, we will be returning to Banff. I will be attending a research meeting over the weekend while my parents explore Banff. On Sunday, we will be traveling back to Calgary. I will be attending the SESCI Conference for the remaining of the week while my parents continue their trip out West.

Will be a great trip. See you when I get back. Take care,

Cynthia
