Feeling like antibiotics have kicked in. My chest was so raw, burning and achey last night and today it is less so.
Snowing outside this morning. Peter is off to the pool with the girls to swim in the snow! I will take a pot of tea in the Rundel room and read (if I can get myself ready in time!). Sigh…bronchitis in Banff has limited our trip a bit but what can one do? As a mother, I eventually catch what my kids have, (especially if we stay at a hotel in close quarters). I will never travel without my emergency Cypro though. It has been a life saver. I have asthma, and had many sessions of childhood pneumonia, thus my lungs are very sensitive to any respiratory virus and they get super-inflamed which leads to a bacterial infection.
Despite all I have managed to hike into town with the girls daily and we went to the Banff Natural History Museum yesterday (built in 1903).

    I just remembered – all the winning photos had the dolls doing something ie) drawing – pencil in hand, yoga etc… always the girls were doing the exact same activity.

    lame, lame lame…those Maplelea judges are exhausting! I had the best take on the photos the other day:
    Oh look, there’s Brianne and Taryn helping Tabs and Mist harvest the Mary Jane at mom and dad’s beautiful grow-op!

    I had the opportunity to visit Benff a few years ago. It was beautiful. The view of the mountains with all the snow was incredible. You take lovely, interesting pictures. I’ve enjoyed exploring your blog.
