Well Nan and I have thought a lot about our summer plans. The latest and greatest plan is a 6,555 km Road trip from Calgary to Calgary. This may sound crazy but we’ll travel: via Saskatoon, across Edmonton, left to Prince Rupert, swim to the Queen Charlotte Islands (Gwaii Haanas National Park), jump on the Ferry to Port Hardy, Trundle Down the Island to Tofino, across to Bamfield, Nip to Vancouver, then up to Powell River, for some much needed rest.
At which point I’ll head to Vancouver to hike with the Guys.
Back on the road heading inland to Kelowna, hop skip and a jump to Crowsnest pass, and sliding into Calgary just in time to work at the end of August…
According to Google Maps we should be able to make it in 4 days 11 hours. Hmmm… We’re going to take at least 40. We hope to travel no more than 250 km per day stopping in every armpit and gopher museum along the way.
Now if only I could get our VW on the road….
