Bob and Lita picked us up from the ferry and spoiled us with lunch! This is them in what they call Bob's "head" office!
We drove down by the river where we saw all the bears last time but we didn't spot any. We did get quite a few pictures of this eagle though!
Funny story: When we arrived in Haines the first time the only shoes Dan had was his jandels and chucks so he brought a pair of gumboots before we left for the southern Islands as we knew it would be cold and rainy. He had them for only a couple of hours and he lost one of them! We went back to all the spots we could remember we had stopped at and looked but no gumboot so he traveled through the islands without them. When we came back down to the river the second time to look for bears before we left to head home Reon spotted Dan's gumboot lying on the side of the road!!
On the road again...
We stopped in at Whitehorse to these friends place. As you can see he is a very keen hunter and has every kind of animal head on his wall!! We didn't get to meet him unfortunately but his wife showed us around...
A cougar and a deer... this cougar has one blue eye!
Dan and his love!
They have this enclosure outside with so many different animals...
We came across this lone bison...
and then a whole herd of them down the road!
Playing cards, we were all so speedy at speed at the end of this trip!
A beautiful sunset...
Dan doing his favourite job!
On the second to last night we got our first flat tyre!
Bacon and Eggs!!
Jasper National Park...
We hadn't been in Jasper National Park long before we came across this bull elk...
Reon...
Jasper park was so pretty!
Bambi...
On our travels we picked up this charcoal BBQ that was outside someones house with a free sign on it. We used it for the first time on our last night! :)
On our last day we treated ourselves to a cafe coffee...
We made it back to Kamloops in time for our first thanksgiving dinner at Kent and Lyndels house. It was delish!!!

We have enjoyed the blog and all the beautiful pictures immensely. You have made a lifetime of memories, and got to do things you will never forget. How lucky can you get? Glad you can travel like that.

Thanks for posting ALL the pics, loved them!!! It looked like the coolest trip ever. Very impressive that the only time you went out for a meal was to mcdonalds, not sure I could have done that:) Did you guys get a job at sun peaks?
