Hi All - we are in Canada on our annual trip, and this time it's a real recce and planning time - all things being equal it won't be too long now and we'll be living our Canada dream - so here are a few hot off the press pics taken in the last week.

1.Vancouver from the air as we came in to land
2.Me, enjoying all the legroom in First Class - we have friends who work for Air Canada - we were so spoilt!!!
3. Capilano Suspension Bridge - not my idea of fun, but I did it - walked accross there and back.
4. Totem Poles in Stanly Park - again - somebody beat me to it.
5. The view from said friends apartment at Yale Town, Vancouver. ( I want that one!)

Great photos!...have a great trip!...and WOW..look at how many people are on that swinging bridge..........must admit i hadn't thought about that...and just presumed i would be the only person on it...like OMG!!.....live and learn..live and learn!

Hubby & kids at Cameron Lake in Waterton National Park & View from top of Sulpher Mountain, Banff

Try being on it when there's a coachload of Korean students jumping up and down!!!! Just happened to me last month when I took my visitors from the UK there. It was the first time in 32 years I had ventured onto it. Never, never again

Awwwwwe, don't you look chilled out... I was offered first class once but decline thinking that I could never, you know 'go back.'

Oh WOW..i realy feel for you!!!..i would have been freaking right out!!!!

Ok now you are realy scaring me......my husband and son want to go there and walk across that bridge sooo badly!......that i am feeling pressured into it.....and ..i just thought..once you get across ...what is on the other side...do you have to come back across it again!!

Glorious photos!...what a lovely addition to your family album!

Yes it is lovely on the other side, and yes you do have to walk back across it again. That was my first and last time, but my OH has done it many times, as have my kids. Me, I'll go for coffee and wait for them next time!!

oh God help me!

Hey, I have almost the exact same picture of Cameron Lake (obviously without your hubby and kids in it)

Its such a beautiful place isn't it?

Hi Maple Leaf ..................... don't worry, the bridge is fine & once you get to the other side you can walk around amongst the treetops. I took my friend who was visiting from the UK there in May & saw her loose control for the 1st time since I've known her ............... the photos at the other side of the bridge showing the aftermath of a storm & a bloody great tree falling on the bridge didn't help!!

WOW..those photos are wonderful!...realy capture the *up in the treetops feeling*......

I spose i will do it at least once..when the time comes..just wish i didnt' have to come back across it..if i can't handle it....

but if i know you are all doing it and surviving that realy helps...

On Monday i was playing golf at the Whistler golf course, and this is what was going on at the 13th hole!!!!

I wish the photos did it justice, i was blown away.

Blown away, I'd have run away. So I bet you missed out the 13th hole then. No seriously what a sight, the photo's are cool.
