My vacation started not that great because the plane I had to transfer in Denver had a mechanical problem which resulted in a two hour delay. Better they find out on the ground than in the air.
Luckily my bad luck ended there. For this vacation, I made a reservation for a mid size SUV. Well I didn't know that a Jeep Grand Cherokee 4WD belonged in that class. Maybe because I was so late they ran out of the regular mid size SUVs.
I stopped at a grocery store to get a sufficient supply of water and granola bars, because along the Canadian Rockies there aren't that many restaurants. While I was driving to the hotel for tonight it was already 8pm and got a bit hungry. In the distance I noticed, in a cloud of dust, a number of road trains, a gas station and a restaurant. When the truckers stop it must be good. I got the today's special and probably only with this meal I already exceeded the daily amount of sodium and fat.
While driving on highway 1, I noticed a new traffic sign 'watch out for pedestrians on the highway'. What are those guys doing walking along the highway? I never spotted one and got safely to my hotel.
