Canada

Back in April I took a too-brief trip to Alberta, Canada because of you-know-why. We drove west out of Calgary, up the Icefields Parkway through Banff National Park and Jasper National Park, then east along the Yellowhead Highway to Hinton. I posted a set of pictures from the trip on Flickr. Here I've posted a few panoramas to whet your appetite.

First of all, despite any indications below that might seem like I had an entirely cruddy time in Alberta over the weekend, let me before I dive in say that it was an excellent weekend. This past weekend was the first time I had seen Megha since May, thereby giving this weekend a grade of "excellent" in spite of the weather's attempts to dampen everything.
