    I am a dual citizen (US & Canada) and spent so much time in Jasper Park, cycling, kayaking, etc. I left Edmonton and moved to the states a few years ago. This video brought tears to my eyes. I miss it so very much. I want to move back.
    There is this and so much more....

Well at least that was my experience... My Daughter is now 36 and my Son is now 24. Very Cool Get Away. At first I was thinking "oh they should have taken the Yellow Bus Van" but then I saw the ROADS and I'm like "So glad they didn't take it"!!!! Looking forward to the continuation of the Family Adventure!!! Western Upstate New York here 💕

    North America has got to be the most beautiful continent in the world. So many beautiful sights of nature mostly undisturbed. A few years ago I visited Yellowstone and the Tetons they are such beautiful national parks. Saw the Rocky mountains probably 12 years ago really pretty place same with the Smoky mountains and The Appalachians. One of these days I have to head up north to Canada and see the beautiful sights up there.

    Took my dog, Francine a rough collie - Lassie, Dog for a walk around Maligne Lake. As we got back to the parking lot a Japanese lady waved at an older couple with a couple I assume grandchildren and asked if her group could pet Lassie. Said OK and then I was distracted keeping Francine from standing on her back legs so she could get hugs. When I looked up I realized there were two tour buses and a long line. Kind of weird becoming an attraction but didn't want to fail the Canadian Tourism Industry.

      Your story reminds me of when I was a kid and our family took a road trip from San Diego to the Oregon/Washintgon border. At Multnomah Falls, a Japanese tourist approached us and asked if she could take a picture of "a typical American family." We got so tickled by this because as a very conservatively dressed family with three girls we didn't view ourselves as a typical American family. But the tourist was so sweet and we couldn't deny her request. From that moment on, we'd jokingly say the phrase, "Typical American Family," in a Japaneese accent whenever we traveled together. Great core memories. (My mother passed away when I was 16.)
      Also, I absolutely love how the Asian culture seem to place such high value on traveling the world. You almost can't go to any beautiful tourist location in North American and not see some tourist busses full of Asians.
