4. Starting to take down the tent and get stuff out of it, while Jada is still sleeping

5. Jada woke up.

6. Went for breakfast at Creston Country Family Restuarant. (when we were done eating and in the parking lot getting ready to hit the road again, we saw a ton of old fashion cars pulling matching trailers. They were so cool. Here is a pic of one!)

7. Took Down the tent

8. Got our picture took by a pair of dice. (top picture)

9. Drove on the road.
10. Stopped at a goat store were goats go on top of the roof and eat grass. THey also make soap there from goat milk. (the bottom picture above. You can see the grass on the awning.)
11. Went for ice cream in Yahk. (the name of a very small town)
12. Drove to Cranbrook.
13. Went to the information centre and got information on what to do.
14. Drove to 4x4 Adventures
15. Got in GMC Trackers and started to drive up a Mountain. Really bumpy. we were on top of a mountain 7200 feet above sea level. AWESOME!! (the lady who lead the tour also had a 6 year old son who comes along, so Jada had a friend to visit with the whole ride. They both enjoyed each others company.)


Below we have pictures from when we were on top of the mountain. Eric with his nukshuk that he built. It was a beautiful sight. (I think if you click on the pictures you can see them larger!)


Below we have picture of the Trackers. Jada and I rode in the red one with the guide and Casey had Eric & Sara in the black one. At one point the red tracker broke down so we got to stop and have a quick break. The bottom middle picture is of Casey coming down a really steep hill. It doesnt look too bad in the picture, but just so you know, it was freaky steep. We also got to blast though a couple of puddles, but I dont have any good pictures of that. THe whole tour was 4 hours long.

16. Driving to find a Japanese Sushi Place.

17. Found the place called Sakura and the chef made us bul-go-gi special just for us. (It was not on the menu, but we know that is what Jada loves from Miso in Swift, so we asked the owner and he had the chef's make us a dish. It turned out GREAT!! Everything there was bang on good. Reminded us of Miso in Swift. The crunch rolls, bul-go-gi, tempura, teriyaki, and we even tried a new dish which was OK)

18. Went to shoppers drug mart to get medicine because Dad is sick. (Casey got a sinus cold...poor guy)

19. Stopped at husky to get ice.

20. Drove to Wasa Lake to stay the night. (this was an amazing campground. but I dont think I would stay for a long time since there was no showers. but the sites where beautiful)

21. Set up the tent.

22. Had a fire. (The kids finally broke out some glow sticks. and they made our names - and lot of other names too, but here is the pics of ours)

23. WEnt to bed.
