ROCKY MOUNTAINS

130 km westlich von Calgary liegt die Stadt Banff als Zentrum des Banff Nationalparks. Egal aus welcher Richtung kommend, landet man unweigerlich in der Stadt. Da bei unserer Ankunft das Wetter für andere Aktivitäten nicht besonders einladend war, flanierten auch wir bald der Banff Avenue entlang. Natürlich nicht allein, denn erstens ist Hoch- und Feriensaison in Kanada und zweitens regnete es bei den anderen Touristen natürlich auch! Der obligatorische Spielplatzbesuch durfte nicht fehlen und dann ging es weiter durch den Nationalpark.
Auch in den kanadischen Nationalparks ist das wilde Campen verboten und wir fanden Platz auf den Campingplätzen mit Selbstzahl-Briefumschlag-System. An einem Morgen, kurz nachdem wir gestartet waren, erblickten wir einen Schwarzbär! Zum Glück waren wir im Auto und konnten Meister Petz beim Fressen beobachten. An anderer Stelle stießen wir beim Spaziergang auf Bär- und Elchspuren. Henning und Carla sind bereits zu guten Fährtenlesern geworden und Mario und ich sind froh, wenigstens das Bärenspray griffbereit zu wissen. Wir haben es uns tatsächlich angewöhnt, es immer dabei zu haben- schließlich sind wir im Bear-Country!

Eine Wanderung am wunderschönen Lake Louise machte uns allen Spaß und da es viel geregnet hatte, hüpften die Kinder von Pfütze zu Pfütze und merkten so die gelaufenen Meter nicht…
Leider war es weiterhin sehr verregnet und die Wolken hingen tief. Die Gletscher des berühmten Icefield Parkways bis Jasper haben wir kaum gesehen. Schade.

Nach Jasper haben wir den Nationalpark verlassen und sind weiter in Richtung Westen gefahren.

Den Kindern haben wir „Fahrtage“ angekündigt und mit Hörspiel und Boardcatering versorgt, ging es ohne Murren die vielen Kilometer zunächst nach Prince George. Diese größere Stadt nutzten wir zum Auffüllen unseres Kühlschranks und den sonstigen notwendigen Sachen. Außerdem wollten wir noch einmal checken, ob wir tatsächlich den Platz auf der online gebuchten Fähre der Inside Passage von Prince Rupert nach Vancouver Island hatten. Das Telefonat brachte Ernüchterung: wir waren gebucht, allerdings nicht mit einem Camper, sondern nur mit normaler Autohöhe. Und nein, Kapazitäten für Überhöhe hätten sie nicht mehr!?! Das Angebot war eine Listung auf der Warteliste… Wir mussten aber an Ort und Stelle entscheiden, wo die Fahrt hinging, denn ohne einen Fährplatz sicher zu haben, wären wir nicht die 720 km nach Prince Rupert gefahren.


In diesen Fällen bin ich Marios Hartnäckigkeit dankbar. Er bat mich um weitere Anrufe und Nachfragen bei der Fährgesellschaft und beim dritten Mal hatte ich eine nette Dame an der Strippe, bei der Service groß geschrieben wurde. Kurzum: sie konnte uns zwei Tage früher auf einer Fähre einbuchen!


Also gingen die „Fahrtage“ nach Westen weiter und wir kamen in Vorfreude auf die Inside Passage in Prince Rupert an. Genug Zeit hatten wir dort eine alte Fischfabrik in Port Edward zu besichtigen, Weisskopfseeadler zu beobachten, einen Faulenztag auf dem Campingplatz zu verbringen und uns einen Wunsch zu erfüllen: einen Flug mit einem Wasserflugzeug! Als wir dann auch noch einen Buckelwal aus der Luft gesehen haben, war der Flug einfach perfekt und hat super Spaß gemacht.

    I don’t know whether it’s just me or if perhaps everybody else
    experiencing problems with your site. It appears as if some of the text within your
    content are running off the screen. Can somebody else please provide feedback and let me know
    if this is happening to them as well? This might be a issue
    with my browser because I’ve had this happen previously.
    Many thanks

    I do agree with all the ideas you have offered to your
    post. They’re very convincing and can certainly work.

    Nonetheless, the posts are too quick for starters.
    May you please extend them a bit from next time?

    Thanks for the post.

  24. tron vanity address generator

    I think everything wrote was actually very logical.
    However, think about this, suppose you added a little content?
    I am not saying your information is not solid, but suppose
    you added something to possibly get people’s attention? I mean ..:
    :Martina Mario::.. is a little plain. You could peek at Yahoo’s home page and watch how they create article titles to get
    people to click. You might add a related video or a related picture or two to get people interested about
    everything’ve got to say. Just my opinion, it would bring your posts a little bit more interesting.

    Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year
    old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to
    her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
    She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had
    to tell someone!
