Photos from Muncho Lake, BC

We stayed at the Northern Rockies Lodge on Wed., Sept. 19. Beautiful place to visit but the staff is not very friendly or accommodating. We didn't have time to sit down and eat breakfast on Thursday morning but knew there wouldn't be another place to stop for food for at least a couple of hours. As we were checking out, we asked if they could make us breakfast sandwiches to go. The response, "We don't know how to make those. Our cook isn't Canadian." We tried a different approach and asked if they could possibly pack us each a piece of toast layered with eggs, a piece of bacon and topped off with a second piece of toast. As it turns out, they could easily do that...for $22. Our wallets are really missing America at this point.

(Mike had an experience similar to the breakfast sandwich experience in Alberta when we stopped at Tim Horton's for coffee. He ordered an iced coffee only to be told, "We don't know how to make that. It's not on the menu." Instead, he asked for a cup half-full of ice with some coffee poured over the ice. It took some more explaining, but was doable.)
