i know. i stink. i told you i’d update and i never did. but i don’t technically have to be anywhere until 4 this afternoon, so i have no excuse. click the pictures to enlarge. and let me know if that doesn’t work for you (i’ve changed how i update my blog, so if i need to revert back, i will, if nobody can see the full-sized images…i realize that you have to log in to facebook to see the full-sized images. shoot me an e-mail if you don’t want to sign up for facebook – i have an account i don’t use that people think is an actual person named ginger watson, and can give you log-in details so you can see the pictures.)
i got to banff at the end of june, and immediately noticed the beauty surrounding me. this is rundle mountain, as seen from the road leading to the music building.
within the first week, we (members of the bassoon studio…who else?!) went into town, went to the grocery store, saw wild sausages (tell me if you agree!), hiked up a few mountains (fell down a few mountains), saw a few rainbows, and bonded (and oh yeah, we played a bunch of bassoon…)

(tell me i’m not crazy by thinking upon first glance that this said “wild sausage” flavor)

(the banff springs hotel in the foreground. this is just as we started the uphill part of the hike)

(we hiked to the hot springs. this is the view from the walk up to the entrance)

(when we got to the hot springs, it started raining. when we were in the hot springs, there were 2 rainbows that we had to look down on. as we were walking back to campus, we saw a few more)

(a few shots of the studio…before the hike, getting cold outside of the water, staying warm in the water)
