Zoo trip

The zoo recently opened the "Journey to Churchill" exhibit, so we had to go check it out.  


The new gate to the zoo.



The butterfly house


Watching for polar bears

We found one!

Cool tunnel, though we didn't see the polar bears swim by.

The seals were very interesting to watch.

Yurting

We decided to try a new kind of camping this year called "Yurting".  A yurt is a permanent tent that you can rent out at a campground.  We were joined by my parents, though they just took their fifth wheel.

Enjoying a hike on the trans-canada trail

The area has experienced flooding in the last couple weeks.  This river shouldn't be this wide.

Water fight!



We tried making s'more cones... Mmmmm ...

This is us with our yurt.


Here is a trail that leads to the lower campground which is clearly underwater.
