2017/02/17 Visiting Revelstoke in British Columbia, Canada

π 2017-02-17 01:01 in Canada, Ntrips, Trips

Arturo and I flew to Calgary, picked up a wretched Jeep Wrangler, one of the worst cars ever made on this god forsaken earth (and it still costs over $30,000). I owe Arturo again for driving us to Revelstoke (almost 5 hours). Despite the weather not being great for sightseeing, it was still a nice drive:

frozen lake

After skiing, we spent a bit of time in downtown and went to the city museum before doing dinner:

The next day since the snow was not great, we ended by noon and went to the rail museum:

the train cars were huge

and the steam engine was also gigantic

And that was it for Revelstoke, nice little place to stop if you're driving the trans canadian highway 1, or you're there for skiing.

Of course, we were there to snowboard, more pictures here
