Considerate Canadians










As is in many other respects the Canadians have been very thoughtful along the Icefields Parkway linking Banff and Jasper. Yes, you do have to display a national parks pass but you do get the drive-up glacier included. Oz was unusual for its drive-in bottle shops but who has ever heard of the drive-in glacier? And they wonder why the glaciers are receding.
Even my mother, who was rapturous in her praise of Antarctican glaciers, cannot claim to have done the drive-in version.

I have never heard of a drive in Glacier. Do you get fries there?

No escalope at the drive in the glacier. This is not the venue for a good dinner party although a lecture was being given by an old duffer in a blue coat.
