Started the day at the Banff Springs Hotel. Posh in the extreme! We went out to the deck and enjoyed the view then headed up via gondola to the top of Sulpher Mountain. The view of the Rockies was even better. We had occasion to walk in snow - it was weird, nice but weird. Had lunch at Barpa Bill's Greek Restaurant and highly recommend it - should be followed by a trip across the street to the Cake Company for a latte. Drove back up to the Upper Springs and sat in the 108 degree hot springs pool for an hour. Then on to wonderful massages!! Couldn't resist a ride around Two Jacks Lake again to see what might be in the park. Had the good fortune to run into (figuratively speaking) a herd of Mountain Goats grazing their way down to the lake. They are so used to people, they didn't seem to mind being photographed from five feet away. Where else can you experience snow and a 108 degree spring but Canada.
