There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened. - Douglas Adams

Whoo Hoo! Class 3, Here I Come!

During Pau's last week here in Alberta, we went camping in Jasper. We went whitewater rafting on the Athabasca River. It was so much fun! And now I'm ready for some Class 3 rapids.

Here are some pix of our trip. The others on our raft adventure are Bas, Marco, and Wout from the Netherlands, and our guide Mark.


To the left: Our tent (borrowed from my generous brother Reid and his lovely girlfriend Lisa, campers extraordinaire). It only took one false start before we successfully got it up and livable. In the middle: Pau, atop Whistler Mountain after we took the Jasper Tramway to the Upper Station. To the right: Pau and I with the Inukshuk we built at the "magic" Medicine Lake, which disappears every fall.

Pau, leaning on an interesting and twisty tree. And the two of us, on our hike of Maligne Canyon.
