It was our 10th Anniversary on Thursday, so being in Canmore we went to the backcountry where we were married.

Married at the edge of Spray Lakes
Our honeymoon at Mount Engadine Lodge

Back to the present:
Heading to the other side of these mountains
Way up there above that power line you can see the road - barely.
Didn't see any goats, but usually you do
Stopped up the hill due to construction ahead
Canmore from half way up
Do not recommend taking a trailer or other up the side of this mountain but this guy did. Small trailer though.
Made it to the top!
Tunnel here mostly under water, divers enjoy this spot often
Snow on some peaks up here
Our wedding spot just below at the waters edge
Roads are better than ever
Avalanche area
I still got it, right?!! Right!
The mountains from our wedding pics in distance

My man and his dog
...unless he needs to poop, then its my dog....
Still cute, maybe....
Heading back to the construction on the road
There are workers dangling down the side of this mountain as they secure it from erosion.
Canmore
Then off to Banff Springs Hotel for dinner
3 bears
1888 Chop House Restaurant
I even had champagne
Caesar Salad
When the waitress brought our sides (center of table), I thought it was bad form to be holding someone else's dessert plates when we were still awaiting our mains... Turned out it was our steaks... His: $70 Mine: $76... I thought they were brownies for another table... you can see why I would think that, I'm sure.
Brad had to send his steak back as it was well and truly overcooked, I ate mine regardless. We only had $280 on us in cash and were just talking about using the credit card because we likely wouldn't have enough cash... the waiter brought the bill... $95.55! The waiter removed both steaks and my cheesecake dessert from the bill.
Very exceptional service at the 1888 Chop House in Banff Springs Hotel. Big shout out to Adam (our waiter). He really helped to make our Anniversary great.
On the way home we saw a few Deer as we were entering the campground to top off our date nicely.
We've decided to make it a thing. Every 10 years anniversary we will return to the scene of the crime.
Happy Anniversary !!
ReplyDeleteSo glad that you were in the same neck of the woods to remember your wedding day. We got a big chuckle over the "brownies" comment, but can definitely see how you came to that conclusion ... lol.
That would be awesome to return to Canmore for your 10's. Such a beautiful spot!
On a side note - I noticed your weather has sure cooled off alot. Fall is in the air
Take care ... TnT
Love hearing from you guys, thanks! It is definitely cooler now (+4C tonight) but usually still 7/8C overnight.
DeleteHappy Anniversary to both of you!

Thanks guys!
DeleteThat steak looked awful cold on that plate all by it's self. We have never paid that much. Happy anniversary and many more!
ReplyDeleteThank you FG! We don't make a habit of swanky dining but 10 years we figured we'd earned it and if you knew the half of it, I'm sure you'd agree. :D
DeleteHappy anniversary, sounds like a nice visit to the scene of the crime, and lotsa nice pictures.
