Alberta Alberta

I spent 5 nights in beutifull Cochrane Alberta at my wonderfull Matante Monique's house. It was better then a 5 star hotel. And she did spoil me with wonderfull foods and transportation services everywheres. I wanted to post pictures but presently im at a Hostel in Downtown Vancouver with terrible wireless speeds and it would always fail. so ill post some when i reach better signal. It was great to hang out with my aunt. She wasint around PEI while we grew up as kids so here was my chance to finally torcher her. kidding. we had a good time and did plenty of things together, she brought me to her friend Trisha's farm. We went horseback riding. I was riding the horse named Fabio, a real lady's man. Deffinetly could use some advice from this studd. again kidding. We went for a good hike about 6 km in and 6 out on the the Johnson's Canyon trails. We seen Ink Pots at the end where we turned around. Very indescribable, Moving sand like quicksand under water bubbling and boiling look to it in a pool of greenish blueish water that stays at a constant 4 degrees C year long. That was a sweet hike and of course the next day we went for an other hike along Forgetmenot pond, very very nice views all around you is mountains in both hikes. it was a little cloudy both days but not too bad, and after that hike. Monique brought me to this amazing East Indian Restaurant called Mehtab East Indian Cuisine. for the appetizer we had Veg Pakora, for the main meal with unreal garlic bread, we had spicy lamb meat, buttered chicken and rice. These meats where mixed into sauces I have never tasted in my life before. Very new wonderful flavours that i really enjoyed. and to top it off a desert. Gulab Jamun. looks like timbits with an unreal hot sauce, my guess there was brown sugar honey and ginger in it. Oh and i had Vietnamese take out on an other day. really good as well, not quite as flavour full as the east Indian foods. will be tough to beat. that is my task for today in Vancouver to find a Sweet restaurant and Explore the city. maybe find some Sandals.

Oh the 15 hour bus ride to vancouver through the mountains was very nice. Was unable to sleep on the bus. As for my first hostel experiance well,,, was ok, loud outside and indoors. but Its Downtown vancouver, there is noise and stuff going on everynight of the week. I just crashed straight to bed last night when I arrived at 10:30 ish, was exhausted. Might go find a pub or something tonight, well see. Peace
