As we head out of Spokane, we decide to do a major grocery shopping as we are not sure what we will be encountering as we head to Canada. Rick and I have been having a debate for 3 weeks on what identification is needed for crossing the border. He’s convinced we need passports or birth certificates. I’m confident they have relaxed those requirements because of application backlogs. There is some concern because as we left on this trip, I discovered my passport had expired. We reach the border and we’ll find out! We stop and go into talk to someone. We pose the question…a driver’s license will do…I high-five the border guard and we cross into Canada.
It’s drizzly and cloudy, but that cannot mar the stunning scenery. We had been through much land scorched by fires and lack of rainfall…this landscape is a solid mass of forest, mountains and stunningly beautiful lakes. As much trouble as we have had on this trip, I still think this is an awesome way to travel.
We take our chances on another Fairmont Hot Springs Resort RV Park . This time we are gratefully surprised....while crowded, it is surrounded by the Canadian Rockies, has a relatively nice hotel and hot springs pools. Best of all, it also has two 18 hole courses. We arrive late in the afternoon, make a terrific Mexican dinner and the margaritas convince us we need to stay here for a couple of extra days.
