Canadian Rockies and Glacier Park
第1天:
從Houston IAH 機場出發, 直飛Calgray, Alberta. 大約4小時抵達. Calgray 是加拿大的Oil City. 城市區和郊區的建築物多是比較新的. 在過去oil boom 的時期, 蓋了許多高樓. 市區位於加拿大洛磯山脈東邊50 英里的位置. 海拔大約4000 呎的高原地區. 我們的酒店在機場附近約6 英里, 所以沒有堵車的問題. 當晚7點和導遊開會,介紹旅遊團的行程及注意事項. 全團遊客有48人, 外加駕駛員和導遊, 總共50人.
第2天:
一早我們向南出發, 經過了牛仔地區, 參訪了Bar U Ranch. 繼續南行去到了Waterton Lakes National Park. 這裡也是世界上第一個International Peace Park. 成立於1932 年, 包括了加拿大Waterton Lakes Park 和美國的Glacier Park in Montana. 下午我們乘船遊湖, 從北向南航行, 到了南端湖水源頭的Waterton River出口處. 湖邊山水相呼應,真是美麗. 晚上我們在Waterton 湖邊的旅館住宿. 旅館是個較為老舊的Motel。此區域或許是一年中只開放半年營業, 對於興建新旅館的投資者也許是興趣缺缺吧.
第3天:
第4天:
我們向北行駛, 去到了Banff, 一個充滿活力的山區城市. 我們乘坐高空纜車, 直達觀望台中心. 在高處四周展望覆蓋白雪的山脈以及腑視眼下Banff 的巿區. 真是美景如畫。晚上住在市區內的酒店, 晚餐去到了有名的Tony Romo’s 餐館, 享用了著名的燒烤小排骨。
第5天:
早晨出發, 沿著湖邊公路行駛, 尋找森林中的野生動物如黑熊,麋鹿(Wapiti,Elk), Moose 等. 我們去到了Bow River Fall. 高度不算什麼,但是水流可是急湍兇湧, 然後去到下遊處, 遊客分別登上了三艘大橡皮筏, 順著Bow River 漂浮了一段距離, 享受了兩岸的美景. 下午去到了市中心觀光並且給兒孫們買了T-shirt做為紀念品.

Glacier side view
The Athabasca Glacier is one of the six principal toes of the Columbia Icefield, located in the Canadian Rockies. The glacier currently recedes at a rate of about 5 metres per year and has receded more than 1.5 km and lost over half of its volume in the past 125 years.
