On the way to JNP from Lake Louise, in Banff NP.
It was just an awesome drive to JNP. Sometimes I wish Nancy would drive so I could just look at the beauty.
See what I mean?...We found these waterfalls right along side the road, still on the way to JNP. Why go? It's too nice to drive any further, but on we go.
Have I mentioned glaciers yet? Well, stand by, cause we're headed to the Colombia Icefields.
Above, our group of RV'ers posing for a group photo op, and about to embark on the glacier directly behind them, about a mile away. Below is a full photo of it. Left & right are other glaciers as well.
See the bottle above?
Yummy! Ice cold water on such a cool day too! Standing on 1000 feet of 1000 year old ice.
Tail gunner Bill drinking a glass of Perrier, er, glacier water.

Here we are boarding our ice buggy.
Our wagon master Ben filling a cup of ice cold, 1000 year old pure glacier water. I'm told by our buggy driver that the makes one younger if you drink it. I saw a lot of folks drinking three or so glasses. Some even filled bottles to carry back to their RVs. :-)See the bottle above?

OK, time to head back. Our 20 minutes is up. Some of us were ready after 10 minutes.

Time to board the buggy and head for the RVs.
Well, I just have too many photos for one Jasper NP blog. So, my next blog will begin with a gondola ride up the mountain beside our RV park in Jasper, AB. Till then, RVing Beach Bums gone!
