After two days of crazy conditions, we decided to slow it down. We woke up a little later and waited for the sun to start showing its beautiful face before heading out. Our mission was Lethbridge, about an hour and a half from the border of Canada and the US, coming in to Montana.
The roads were flawless the entire way, we made it in 9 hours with a few long stops in between, we spent probably 7 hours driving total. From Lethbridge to Edmonton, things were sort of hilly, but prairie like. Looked like we were driving on the west side of North Dakota. From Edmonton's crazy city driving to Calgary, things were fast moving, until we hit rush hour traffic in Alberta's biggest city, where the olympics were once held.
As we passed through Calgary, our daylight was nearing the end, but decided to push on, so we could stay on our new schedule....
Today was an uneventful day, which ended in a relaxing early arrival to our hotel in Lethbridge. We were able to kick back, relax in the hot tub and watch Luke play in the pool. Zoey really started crawling today, and she is now sitting from the crawling position. She doesn't like Daddy going up the stairs and then coming down the waterslide. It makes her cry!
On to Billings tomorrow, finally getting in to the lower 48. I am sure Luke will be ecstatic as he hasn't technically been IN the lower 48 since we left them in 2008. (Airports don't count...)
See you in the morning lower 48! We will be home soon!
