Croquet and stuff

Here are some photos that Yumiko took of us playing croquet on Monday.


It was very cold and very windly, and was threatening to rain, but we had such a good tim that Yumiko and Jon went out and bought their own croquet set! So hopefully we'll be playing more of it.

Yesterday I almost saw a bear though. I went for a bike ride along the Spray River loop with three women from Edmonton (who had kids my age and gave me their phone numbers so I have a place to stay if I'm in the area). We were coming back along the trail when we bumped into some American Tourists who wanted their photo taken, so we all stopped. A second later, three guys on bikes came pelting past and they said that they had just seen a bear, a few metres from the track. We must have all passed right by it. The tourists wanted to go and take a picture but we persuaded them against it.

Here's photos. The castle is the Fairmont Banff Springs, which is absolutely massive. You can have up to six weddings at a time there.




That last one is what happens if you try and take a picture of a sprinkler.
