Jasper Trip

 

 

 

 



I get a lot more pictures taken over the summer months, as we tend to take a few trips. We've been looking forward to our trip to Jasper with our friends, way back when we booked our cabins. It has come and gone already, and all we have are some pictures!! WE had a great time, and we plan on doing this annually! 6 couples, 9 kids ( 7 boys- 2 girls). We did lots in one day, as we went to the Athabasca Falls, Miette Hot Springs, and went up the Gondola. These pictures are taken when we first arrived in Jasper.

More Pics

 

 

 

 



A few more pictures of our trip to Hana... including the road we drove after supper. Then a photo of the condo we stayed at in Maui, and the matching outfits we all got!! The kids loved the souvenirs we bought them.. We missed them so much!! But we know they had fun at their Grandparent's house in Bonnyville. It was a great vacation for us, and we hope you enjoy the glimpse of some of it!! Later!

Touring around Maui

 

 

 

 



I think Grant's favorite part of Hawaii was when he picked out which rental cars he'd like. For the Ohana island, we had a red convertible Mustang, and around Maui, we had a Bright yellow convertibel corvette, which had ALOT of jam to it.. (but not much for suspension, for the ROUGH roads we encountered by accident after Hana.) We NOW know why you can by T-shirts that say : I survived the road to Hana! WOW We spend a whole day driving to Hana and back, with the most breathtaking scenery; Waterfalls, and ocean fews. On the way there, there is 52 miles of highway, which has 63 sharp turns, and 54 one lane bridges. You can NOT drive faster than about 15 km an hour, and that was REALLY hard for Grant to do in the corvette. It was the scariest drive of my life!! And past Hana, we learned there's 6 miles of the roughest road ever, with no abilitiy to see if there's a car around the corners. We were pretty much driving on the edge of the cliff from a mountain. But everyone said it was a must see for tourists. All I can saw is WOW. These are a few pictures from our day.
