Canada on the cheap-ish

lillouet, where we were subject to a downpour which flooded the car park in 30 seconds. i see the canadian bacon is still very thin and extremely crispy. :)
Top tip, don't ask for bacon ask for Canadian ham, it's soooooo much better.
 
the cars are an amc (jennifers dad in bttf had one) cant remeber the model - 81?

the other one is a pontiac 73 ish?
 
Popped down to the Olyimpic Plaza managed to get this pic before the rain started again.

Excuse the poor quality pictures taken from my dashcam above.

Arrived at our hotel in Clearwater, 425km’s today. Walked across the road to the amazing little supermarket and bought another lasagne (different brand).IMG_7936.jpegIMG_7932.jpegIMG_7934.jpegIMG_7935.jpeg
 
For those of you on Facebook I’ve put the relive video of today’s trip on Ukgser facebook page, unfortunately I forgot to start it for an hour and a half, I’ll try and remember to do it every day.
 
Started the day with a few waterfalls, got to see Mount Robson on one of the 12 days a year the top is visible.

Arrived in Jasper, a few Elk and deer around, met up with my friend at our hotel, nice meal out tonight. Apparently the northern lights will be out tonight around midnight fingers crossed.

A day in and around Jasper today. 1st off for a hike at Pyramid Lake then back for a look around the town. Bison for dinner because it was the only thing on the menu I’ve not seen anywhere else so far. Lots of Elk in close proximity. The lobby of our hotel has a swimming pool in it, very odd.IMG_8046.jpegIMG_8059.jpegIMG_8075.jpeg

Today was the shortest in mileage at 160 but the longest in time because the scenery on the Icefield Parkway is stunning, including over 100 glaciers!
A few waterfalls to start the day.
