The Last Spike

Pic #1: Me at the Last Spike Place...Yes, I hammered it in.

Pic #2: Part of the Three Valley Gap Hotel and the righthand waterfall on the mountain.

Pic #3: The aftermath of an avalanche across the road from the hotel. It was cleared away before we got there.

Pic #4: More of the hotel with the lefthand waterfall behind it.

Yeah...so today, we were tourists. We drove an hour and a half (and more) past Salmon Arm to Revelstoke and saw a million incredible mountains and waterfalls on the way. We stopped at the Last Spike place-thing on the way, where they put the last spike into the CP railway. It was really cool :) Then we kept going and went into Revelstoke for McDonalds! YAY! On our way back, we went to the Three Valley Gap Hotel, which was pretty darn cool! Not that we stayed...we can't afford that! But the building itself is HUGE and surrounded by mountains and cliffs and a lake and waterfalls that come from the top of the mountain and there was a fairly fresh avalanche on the other side of the road...and it was cool! So yeah!

It was also awesome because when you're driving, there's all these waterfalls that come off the mountains and come right to the side of the road!

So yeah! It was pretty cool! Tomorrow, we're having "May Birthdays" with Bri's parents :) Should be fun!
