There were two other highlights for us as a family in Jasper. Lunch at Jasper Pizza and the massive steam train on display. Our eldest was so impressed he spent ages checking it out.

Well I am finally back into this after getting side tracked due to TC Debbie. We were lucky with not a huge amount of damage, only minor on the house and farm sheds and we are just about back on track although the fallen timber on the property will still take years to get it all cleaned up...

Few more photos and then it was time for a late lunch. It was mostly fried food and burgers but not too bad.

BC Wildlife Park The second day we headed across the road to the wildlife park, the RV park guests have a special rate but we found a family pass was a slightly better deal at $54 CAD. Home: | BC Wildlife Park Kamloops It was mid week and hardly anyone else was there, until a group of...

Kamloops This stop was planned so I could catch up with a family member. If we didn't have the RV we would have stayed up the mountain at Sun Peaks, Kamloops isn't the prettiest town around but it is huge and according to my cousin you can often get some good deals flying into Kamloops from...

The afternoon was spent wandering around checking out all the Olympics leftovers and burning off energy in a pretty cool kids playground, well we spent it watching them. The village was pretty quiet before the snow season starts. How's this for a cubby house. We must have been asked...

Next day was spent exploring around the town and doing a few tourist sites. Being Queenslanders we loved all the leaf fall and the changing colours. Lots of walking and worth the stop in at the visitor centre, we were even given Canadian flag pins. Lunch was at the Amsterdam Pub, it was dam...

Whistler 2 nights I think I already said we were doing this late in the season both for cruising and RVing, so I pre-booked all our RV parks as some had already closed for the season. This one is open all year round as it also caters to sled ridders and permanent residences. Home for the next...

Now on to something new for us, our first trip in a RV! We wanted to do a one way hire from Vancouver to Calgary and only a few places would let us do this. Prices ranged and we found that we had to book about 6 months out from our trip, even then there were places with no availability. We...

Ketchikan prides itself on being the totem capital and there are totem poles all over the place. Final look around before we headed back on board with really sore feet. The next day was spent at sea and it got rough. Didn't see many people about that day, even kids club was deserted...

Armed with our maps, including the free walking map from Visit Ketchikan Alaska - Attractions we headed off again. Next stop was back down to the main street. Nearly all of the shops offer a free token with a voucher to entice you into the store and buy overpriced jewellery. Our kids were...

Day 5 Ketchikan We arrived into port pretty early around 7am but took our time having breakfast - you guessed it more waffles. Its a very pretty town and the arrival and departure is some of my favourite scenery. I loved the style of the houses. I did look at the prices and quickly...

I can recommend Frans Indongo Lodge, it was lovely.

Finally catching up. I love The Tug, had many great meals here. Great trip report.
