Calgary

We have had to take the bus to Calgary. They allow buses through but not private vehicles. There is extensive road damage particularly to bridge abutments which have been undermined. I reckon it will a couple more weeks to fix.

The shuttle dropped us at the airport and we took taxis to the university where are staying at the student hostels.

We have a rest day here tomorrow but can't really go anywhere because the downtown is still closed and the campus is well out of town.

Nothing like resting up though for the 6500km still to do.

I've attached a photo of self in Banff in the sun before departure this morning.

Also bought a new sleeping mattress as the old one kept leaking air.
