Thursday Thirteen (Banff/Jasper Vacation)

13 Things I've Loved About My Vacation

1) Horseback riding in Jasper National Park.
2) Discovering a hidden lake with my sister's name.
3) Hiking through the woods with Raj behind me convinced that bears were going to eat us.
4) The tea house on Lake Agnes.
5) Sleeping in and snuggling.
6) The drive from Banff to Jasper through the mountains listening to Radiohead.
7) Sampling the Canadian microbrews.
8) B&Bs, and the fact that Raj found us a beautiful one on a island outside of Vancouver.
9) Canadians, eh.
10) The woods, mountains, lakes and gorgeous natural scenery.
11) The promise of shopping and a bit of pampering in Vancouver.
12) Snacking on the best caramel kettle corn ever while hiking through Banff.
13) No Dragon Lady!

Aperture - Thanks for all the info! Unfortunately I am just getting this today (Monday, 25th) and have already left beautiful Canada. I'm so sad!! However, I have big plans to go back and will keep your wonderful suggestions in mind!

Ladies - Thanks! Pictures will be forthcoming.

Bacchus - The lake was serene and peaceful. Beautiful, like Bean.
