Day 38: 6/27/19: Rest Day

We got up at 3:30 a.m. today so we could be at Lake Moraine to see the sunrise there. That is apparently something you want to do in Banff National Park.  We got to the lake at about 5:00 a.m., in plenty of time to watch the sunrise.  Unfortunately, it was rainy and extremely cloudy, so there were no sun rays to be seen anywhere.  At least it got us started early, and we were able to see a lot (pics below).

Lake Moraine



Athabasca Glacier


Edith Cavell Mountain



Angel Glacier


Athabasca Falls


And to top it off, a BEAR!!!


A few more scenic pics from today.









Total miles today: 0 (on a bike, but a whole bunch in a car)
