Day off in Canmore

Hey, Canmore’s a really nice town! It’s a pretty quiet tourist town and has got a good feeling about it. I’ve just spent the day wandering around and enjoying the sunshine. Plenty of restaurants and cafes to satisfy a hungry Trans-Canada cyclist too! A very relaxing place to recharge my legs.

I shot a few snaps while out and about. All these were taken within a couple of blocks of my motel which was right in the town centre.

The Bow Valley Motel is recommended by me.

Ceannmore (or Ceann Mor) is Gaelic for "Big Head" (as in great leader)

Great pics, although I don't share your interest with the fire hydrant. Happy Canada Day to you!
