I told her about it and even sent her a picture of it. I also told her i'd take her there someday.

She said they had 35 weddings in one day. That would be the day to be wedding crashers.<BR/><BR/>Having lived in a resort town, I am familiar with silly things tourist say.

Am enjoying the pics, the stories, and the adventures. Wishing you continued safe travels, good Canadian beer, and easy-on-the-eyes bikers....<BR/><BR/>You might get a kick out of this:<BR/><BR/>** From Alberta's Banff/Lake Louise tourist bureau:<BR/><BR/>"That's such a lovely flag," said a tourist admiring the Canadian flag. 'Does it come in many colors?"<BR/>Visitor: How far is it to Lake Louise? <BR/>Staff member: 40 miles <BR/>Visitor: How long is the trail?<BR/>Staff member: Five kilometers. <BR/>Visitor: What's that in English?<BR/>At which elevation do the elk change to moose?<BR/>Can you book us baseball tickets at the SkyDome tonight?
