Driving day from West Glacier to Bow Valley Campground just south of Banff. We bypassed Calgary during rush hour and made it to the campground about 6pm. A fairly uneventful day of driving on the prairie, seeing cattle, and wheat fields with the mountains rising to the west of us as we drove north.
As we were leaving in the morning, we passed the train station at West Glacier so Jeff took some photos. 
Jeff likes trains (and train tracks) 
Stopping at Customs to show our passports. It was not busy at all. 
Carson has been asking about going to Tim Horton’s since last year. We stopped at the first one we saw and he was so excited. Donuts for the boys and a chocolate chip Frappuccino for me. 
Calgary looks like a fun town. We plan to go back and spend some time here in the future. 
This campground had a great little gift shop and tasty pastries. 
Now I want to see Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure again! 
Our campsite. They gave us lots of instructions to store all food in our vehicles so we don’t attract large animals such as bears or cougars. 
The cooking set up. Ramen for the kids and chicken noodle pasta for us. Plus, since we have electricity at this site, we are charging all the things. 
We were given brochures in case we have an encounter with a bear or cougar. We will not be heading off into the wilderness by ourselves at all (we are sticking with the throngs of people at the main tourist sites) but we did study up just in case. Plus Jeff has bear spray. 
A cool flower next to our campsite.
