By the time you read this, it will be Australia Day. Banff is full of Ozzies, or should I say the 'Pump & Tap' bar was full of Ozzies on Tuesday night, starting their celebrations early! We met some great people, including Lucy, Chook and Matt (not sure why Lucy isn't in the photo, as she's much better looking than these two!).
They introduced me to Coopers Ale, which is one of many Australian drinks on offer at the P&T over the next two days. I had to sample one or two before deciding whether I liked it - and I did! Good onya!
Earlier in the evening we visited the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel. This is a spectacular building, constructed in 1887 - plush!
The hotel is in the shadow of Mount Rundle - 9,777ft of sheer limestone. Bow river is in the foreground - all but frozen over.
Walking back into Banff, you can see how the Rockies dominate everything here! (Or should that be the Ozzies?!)
Wishing all Australians a great day - hope it's a beaut!!
