Today we had a nice lie in until 9am and drove to Jasper with Cornelia and Lindsay (two housemates). We helped Lindsay with her luggage as she had to check it in for her bus trip home and then Jacob and I went to lunch at Famoso's, which is a pizzeria. I had hawaiian and Jacob had a marinara pizza which were both good. I also got treated to a strawberry and rhubarb 'sorbette' after and Jacob had salted caramel icecream! Yum. After a lovely lunch out, we droppe...

I haven't written for a few days, because the internet hasn't been working here. Well, it works but it's shockingly slow and takes about an hour to load something, so I gave writing blogs a miss, otherwise it would have taken me days to post them!

We got up at 9am today after a much needed lie-in. We set off at 11:30am to go to Jasper to get our National Park pass for the car.

I also managed to find Batiste dry shampoo there and lots of other good toiletries! I was so happy. I've been into so many stores and they've only sold Dove stuff which makes your hair r...

Today has been yet another beautiful day. Work went fast which was good and we finished an hour earlier than usual, which was a nice start to our days off. Our supervisor sprayed us all with bug spray, so we didn't get hassled by the mossies today! After work we signed up for the water rafting trip which takes place in a few weeks time which is something to look forward to! Then we drove to Jasper with Mayumi and Lyndsay (japanese and canadian housemates) to ...
