The road trip resumes today as we leave BC for Alberta! We've stopped at the stunning (and stunningly cold) Waterton Lakes National Park!

Having a rest day in Fernie to do some work and recover from two solid days of driving before we leave BC and head into Alberta. Here's the view from our hotel room!

Our second (and penultimate) brewery of the day is Encore in Cranbrook, another 90 minutes down the road. Very cool vibe (and a bowling alley) although sadly we don't have time to bowl...

Three hours of driving later (plus an hour from crossing into Mountain Time), via a stop at the World's Largest Paddle, we have arrived to check off Invermere Brewing! It is... Okay!
Mountains were absolutely spectacular though. Shame we weren't allowed to stop due to avalanche risk.

Stopping for coffee and a change of driver in Revelstoke, home of pretty mountains and a very classy art deco city hall. Yay for municipal architecture!

Day 2 begins with the classiest decor so far: a stained glass automatic door.

First day done! Made it to Salmon Arm, BC, most famous for being where Pierre Trudeau once gave the finger to some protestors. It's too dark to take a nice photo so here is us watching the Weather Channel 🌦️

First stop, in Kamloops! Ana has been working on her mission to visit every brewery in BC since 2020 - with this one (Embers) we're down to 4/273 remaining!

As you may know we're leaving Canada in three months, and so to cap our time here in style we're embarking on a 6,000km road trip today - off to sunny Halifax, Nova Scotia via some distinctly not-sunny places.
Will we freeze to death? Will we have enough laundry? How's my French? Updates to follow.

I'm not one to complain much about game prices but this pricing decision seems... idiosyncratic.

Very pleased with this puzzle I've made for our Thanksgiving escape room tomorrow.
Players think getting through the maze is a language puzzle, but it's not - directions are given in a language which is written in the direction being given.
I had one hell of a time finding down-to-up languages!

Ana's gone back to Vancouver for a couple of days to move out stuff while I clean the house, and while on my own in an empty ski resort I've decided "I'm going to do some writing".
Usually the blood gets off on the second floor!

Keeping a log of "interesting words I have come across" is helpful for vocab building but also makes me look like a maniac

Four years and a month ago I moved to Seattle and took a series of photos that made it look like the most moody place on earth.
