All the Frills: Adventures in Camping

So I went camping back at the start of July. I usually make it out 2-3 times per year and one of those trips is a bigger one that several friends and I go on. This year we went to Waterton, an amazing place near the US/Canada border (it was a long haul to get there, about 6 hours in the car). But it was a beautiful place (we camped just outside the National Park and went in daily for hikes, strolling around town, etc). Today I'm sharing a few pictures from the trip.

Nature!


A beautiful beach area


Even more nature!


A beautiful early twentieth-century hotel from the days when Waterton was a resort destination for the wealthy who travelled there by train and then stayed in style

Such a gorgeous area! I really love the idea of arriving by train (so glamorous? haha). Love the buffalo too!

That waterfront has the most gorgeous view. Doesn't look like the softest beach, but still. I would want to be one of the rich and famous people staying in the hotel. That is my kind of camping, haha.

UHM-- MAJESTIC. Though I'd probably be one of those people who would insist staying indoors and arriving by train (if I could only afford to!)... The views are stunning!

I haven't been to Waterton for years but I always remember the buffalo - I think they're adorable.
