Columbia icefields Part 1 - Breakfast!
September 14th Tuesday
I don't know why but I kept waking up last night. I didn't have trouble sleeping again, I just thought it was weird that I slept better at the hostel. [The hotel was interesting in that it had a sink and mirror in the room, but I needed to go down the hall to use the shared bathroom/shower. It was all good though, as the hotel was a good 40-100 bucks cheaper than other places]
I guess the crazy amounts of walking this trip has been paying off because my legs aren't terribly sore today. I took the hotel conditioner because it was pantene pro-v, so I can carry that smell with me by shaking my evergrowing hair.
I checked out and stored my stuff before heading to the post office. I sent my letters and my first journal out express because it was only a dollar something difference. Also, Nita will be seeing everyone this weekend at Jacob and Claire's new place.
After getting my icefields ticket, I headed to a restaurant called 'Papa Georges'. The menu outside said there was a wild game burger with elk, bison, and venison. I wanted to try it but they serve breakfast until 11:30 [my tour leaves at 12]. I may come back for it. Instead I got a 'carnivore skillet'. I expected a small denny's skillet, but a massive fajita skillet came out. The monster breakfast has tons of sausage, homefries, peppers, mushrooms, and is topped with 2 large eggs and salsa/sour cream. I finished half and packed the rest for lunch. I also got chamomile tea so my stomach won't be all over the place for the tour. [Despite its size, it was quite delicious and heavy]
