We used the still amazing weather on June 27th to do a big hike up Grotto Mountain. It was really strenuous because it goes up and down very steeply. But it was worth it! The...

On the last day in Yoho National Park, another highlight awaits us. We drive to the 384m high Takakkaws Falls. The narrow and steep Yoho Valley Road winds its way up the...

Lorrain surprises us with the news that we can use her canoe on Emerald Lake. We get life jackets and paddles and head to the lake. It was probably quite cold at night, but the...

Unfortunately, we have to leave the beautiful log cabin again. We drive back on the Icefields Pkwy to our next accommodation in Yoho National Park. In the morning sun, Abraham...

A sunny day with a rafting tour planned as the highlight. But first, we want to visit Patricia Lake and Pyramid Lake in the morning light. A postcard idyll awaits us, peaceful...

Above the Clouds

After long emotional preparation, which among other things consisted of the constant weather updates from my father, they were now at the door: the coldest days of my life. A...

For the next 5 weeks, I am allowed to conduct research at Université Laval and exchange ideas with other scientists. The campus is a huge area. From the bus stop 'Laval...

Yes, we have arrived at our third stage in Quebec. The journey began early in the morning at 4:00 am from the hotel in Tacoma with the shuttle to the airport. At check-in, each...

The kids are homesick for Zopf and something to really sink their teeth into. I think anyone who has traveled the world and not found the right bread understands that. Thanks to...

Hello dear people :) Last week was pleasant. We visited a lot, went out to eat several times. I finally tried Poutine - a specialty from Quebec. You eat fries with cheese and...

Hurrah, the sun is shining and we are already fighting for a parking spot at Lake Louise at 7:00 am. Success! Now it's time for breakfast and then off to Mirror Lake and Lake...

On JULY 3rd drive from Boston to Niagara Falls. But first, let's pick up our rental car a few blocks away at Budget. On the way, we'll experience our first toll fees at bridges...
