Scratch what i said about Central America.. No doubt its different from the countries i've been to, exotic in some ways and wouldnt mind doing it again but Canada, Canada is a must for all. The drive towards the U.S/Canadian border was rather boring and we travelled 3074kms from El Paso, only to stop at a small town town called Casper, Wyoming to sleep before continuing our journey the next day, across the border into Banff, Canada. Speaking of casper, adik told me to print out stickers like my father's and in this case, i should be casper since he is 'hantu'. Thank god i didnt. I just realized that casper looks like a condom and i aint gonna portray myself as a flying safe sex mascot. Now, back to Banff.. Where do i begin? It is a small town, tourist resort, surrounded by mountains and greenery's.. It was just honestly breathtaking. When we arrived, it was late at night, we were tired and just looking for a place to sleep. We couldnt see the view or how the town looks like. When i woke up in the morning, had my coffee and walked outside for a puff.. there it was. Amazing.. Incredible.. God damn it! I love it.. love,love,love,love it! Thanks to Hugh's mother who suggested that we should take a peek at this town, we spent the night and i know for sure now, it is not enough. I will definitely come back for more, i would even stay for a week perhaps. They have all sorts of activities such as atv tours,white water rafting, horse riding, rock climbing, hiking,float trips, caving tours, biking, fly fishing, wildlife tours, kayaking. glacier sightseeing,heli flights, zipline tours, gondola rides, camping to name a few or did i just list it all? I cant help it. I think i found a new love.. Told you that i would be in this state of mind the whole journey. K.L really got me on my nerve and im not homesick at all. Sure i miss adik, mama, baby, my hommies (not homo ok, my dear) and the FOOD but for now, im super fine, still thirsty for more new places, new people, new day. So Alaska, here we come! Pictures above was taken throughout the drive from quick-passing-thru America to heaven-on-earth Canada.. It's amazing, isnt it?
p/s after my camera's battery died, i started to take mental picture. Do you know how? Let me teach you.. Aim and focus on what you want to remember and then close your eyes for 2 seconds as if you are the lens, taking snapshot from the camera. If you are not sure you are doing it right, please call adik and she will gladly show and guide you.
