Hello all
Today was our last day in Jasper
. Our Jasper plans went west because we couldn't do the Edith Cavill walk yesterday. So over breakfast Sandy came up with a left of field idea. Because its a sunny and bright day lets go for a helicopter ride?? So as none of us put up any opposition to the idea we went for it. We had to drive to Hinton which is a about 50 klm away.
We spent 30 minutes longer than we needed to getting to the heliport. We met our pilot and he was a pleasant guy and when he checked something under the helicopter he reminded us so most of plumbers that we have all met. Sandy drew the short straw to ride shotgun and Linda Grant and myself snuggled into the back seat, The point of the flight was to get a better perspective of the Rockies, and we got what we wanted. The mountains seemed to go on forever.
On the way back to Jasper we dropped by Pyramid Lake. As per usual around here lakes are beautiful.
Tomorrow we drive to Kamloops to begin our journey home. Sigh...
By all.
Baz and Sand
