Yiipeeeee

Zofran has changed my life! thank you little pill I love you!

We went back to Banff again this weekend. I have been on Z for a few days and hoped that I was going to be fluffy very soon!

I was! We went to an ace veggie restaurant in Ba

nff called Nourish. They make really wholesome, home co

oked grub. I was not hungry but said that I would share Bugs meal. He ordered edamame to start and a veggie quinoa/ lasanga thingy for his main.

I ate one edamame...hmmm yum, and another and another and actually I think I ate them all. then I ordered another portion MAMMA! YUM!!! I also had a little taste of his main dish AND then i nicked half his pudding heheh.

Bug had been out to Marble Canyon in the Kootenay NP earlier in the week as part of his Geology conference. He said it was stunning and wanted to show me the place too. He reckoned that it was even more amazing than Johnston Canyon. I had to see this place!

The image at the top is the plunge hole at marble Canyon with the on above being the crevasse (I can't work out how to portrait this image argh!). The river is probably an exposed cave system because it is so deep and narrow.

It has been snowing and it is ccccold so this was the plunge hole when we were there. Fancy a dip?

There are lots of trails from Marble Canyon that look like ideal running trails. I used to trail run when I was younger and meant to start again here in Canada but got bursitus...pregnant etc. We took an easy walk of 6k to paint pots and back...

hmm dont go there in the snow as there is nothing to see! I look so excited no! We did see cougar tracks in the snow tho. I was carrying a mighty stick to beat it with if it tried to eat me. Reckon I scared him off.

We had to head back to banff to pick up my engagement ring (!!!!) So exciting! We made it back just on time and ran into the shop. I had to try it on again as they had resized it for me. The two shop ladies were very refined women, one even had leather trousers and a matching corset on with furry bits (yikes!). It was hideous but it looked expensive. The reason I mentioned that was because the mighty stick I had carrying to beat off cougars was tree burn. Kootenay had an almighty forest fire 5 years ago and the entire area is regenerating...I had picked up an old burnt charcol stick and my hands were jet black.

Bug noticed and shrieked at my hands, then they women noticed and had some kind of deep internal reaction, I ran off to wash my hands several times...until the water ran clear and then tried it on. :-)
