Waterton International Peace Park

Waterton was made a peace park in honor of the long term friendly relationship between Canada and the USA. The other half of the park, on the USA side, is Glacier National Park. This is some kind of park. I know I talk about, almost daily, how beautiful the places are that we have been seeing. But they are. Each place has its own special something. I have said in the past, every hill we go over, every corner we turn, another beautiful sight is placed before us. And today did not disappoint. In fact it was off the charts. A show stopper. To begin with the weather could not have been better. Perfect temp, clear shy, no haze, no humidity. Just one of those days that don’t come often.          

First up, Cameron Lake. Do I hear any ewwws and  ahhhs?                                                                                     Look on the  bottom right, you can see the bottom of the lake                                 A short hike brought us to Lost Horse Creek, so relaxing there with the water making lovely music.       The Prince of Wales Hotel wasn’t too shabby. The view of the hotel up from the lake was beautiful and the view of the lake from the hotel – Well Now!   OK we almost had a safari today. Two black bear sightings. Deer everywhere just hanging out in the town. Loved the three babies with their Mommy. And a moose.      I had the opportunity to pick Saskatoon berries and were they ever delish! Makes you want to ride a horse doesn’t it? Our last day in Canada could not have been more spectacular. We have fallen in love with Canada and her people. I don’t know how I am going to go back to civilization. All of this open land, clean air, clean water, blue water, and animals. Makes you feel so good.
