The last few days have been pretty relaxing. On Friday I made my way to Banff. Only a couple hundred kilometers, but that gave me time to sight see around the town. Stayed at a bed and breakfast which I have to say was nicer than any other place I stayed at during the trip, and not too expensive either. And going to the hot springs is always a plus.
The past couple days I've been staying at my friend Janine's place in Calgary. No riding, but that's fine since I need some time to let my shoulder recover since the pain has become a bit constant. Once again, Calgary's freeways require that you know where you're going ahead of time so you don't end up cutting across 3 lanes of traffic so that you don't miss your turn off. Not that I would do that...
Today I went with Janine to heritage park in Calgary. They were having some sort of fair going on, and it was a lot of fun. Rode a steam train, steam paddlewheeler, checked out some old timey things, and once again, took lots of pictures. Tomorrow I'm headed to a motorcycle shop first thing in the morning to get my rear tire swapped out. I'm really hoping they work on my bike right away so that I can cover some distance on Monday. Then it's the long trek back to Winnipeg.
Not too much else to post about at this point. The bulk of the trip is over and it's been a lot of fun. Now that I've made this trip I'll be much more eager to go on another one like it in the future, especially considering that I won't have anything I need to buy in order to go....except for maybe a bigger bike...
