Canadian Rockies Walkaboo

Papito and I (Spike the Bear) were talking Saturday morning.

Spike: Wanna go walkaboo?
Papito: Si, Signor Spike.
Spike: Jasper and Mount Robson?
Papito: Si. Que bueno.

So we got Jenn and Jim's lazy bums off the sofa, loaded up the car, and off we went.



Papito and I wore our seatbelts, so Allisoo wouldn't worry aboo us.



We drove towards the cloud-covered Rockies.



We stopped for pie in McBride.



As we came out from under the cloud cover, we saw Mount Robson ahead of us.



We found a nice place to stay right near the base of Mount Robson--Mount Robson Lodge--where we got a cabin.



Then we headed on to dinner in Jasper. Jasper is in Alberta.



We saw elk tracks in the sand.



And then we saw elk--a Mom and her baby.



By the time we got back to the cabin, Papito fell fast asleep.



The next morning, Papito got to play in a habitoo not at all naturoo for a Costa Rican Poison Dart Frog.



Jenn and Jim went on a 9 mile hike around the base of Mount Robson, to the north tip of Kinney Lake.



And on our ride home we got to see our flesh-n-blood broo!

*much bouncing up and down of Bears*

Jim held us up to the car window so we could see, while Jenn yelled, "Keep your window rolled up! Keep your window rolled up." It was great fun for all of us.



And as a fitting end for our trip, we drove under a dramatoo sky.

Papito and I had a great time on our Canadian Rockies Walkaboo with Jenn and Jim. And, in our next post, we have one more surprise from the trip to tell you aboo.

OK Bye
Spike

I love the photo of Papito in the tree!

And I had a guess as to the news, but if I was right, I'd assume Jenn would have alluded to it in her Blog, so I'm not sure now.
