Pelicans, bikes and go carts

Last week we went camping to a couple places, Eagle Lake in Strathmore and Dinosaur Trail in Drumheller. Except for the wicked witch at Dinosaur Trail that called the RCMP on our "rowdy" group, we had a blast!

These first pictures are at Eagle Lake. Each evening we were treated to the sights of Pelicans!

This guy was sitting in the water all by himself for a while.



All of a sudden, 4 more pelicans came swooping in.



We ended up calling them "the one poor guy and the 4 bitches" because the 4 that came in ignored that poor lonely guy for over an hour before they allowed him to fish with them. He just paddled along behind them the whole time.



On to Drumheller. We took the kids to the go carts one afternoon. Looks like they had fun:



While we were there our 5 year old finally agreed to let us take his training wheels off. He had been fighting us on this for months but he saw so many kids there taking theirs off for the first time, we finally convinced him he should too. One push was all it took.
