Kermit the Frog sang that “It ain’t easy being green.” How about, “It ain’t easy being a conjoined-twin forced into a humiliating form of circus-slavery,” or “It ain’t easy having no limbs.” Being green is the least of these people’s worries. (In fact it might be nice to be culturally-beloved for a change.) At the turn of the last century, entertainment was a different species than it is today, having not T.V. or radio or action movies; you had to witness a living miracle in order to be fully entertained, and circuses provided that very thing.

The Midwest, also known as the Middle West and the North Central States, is a region in the north-central United States that lies between the Appalachian and the Rocky Mountains. It consists of the states Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. It’s a region rich in leisure, culture, art, and fashion. As everyone knows, rich culture usually means dialects and lifestyles unique to that area. The Midwest is known for some particularly unique slang and turns of phrase. Some of these are so out there, you would have had to have been born and raised there to understand them. Think you can get them all right?

Johnston canyon, Banff National Park, Alberta.

Stunning. Spectacular. Gobsmacking. Every turn in the road reveals jaw dropping splendor. Are waterfalls, glaciers, turquoise lakes and sweeping valleys on your scenic tour list? If you are considering a Canada road trip, Alberta’s Icefields Parkway is calling your name. Stretching between the mountain paradise towns of Jasper and Banff in the Canadian Rockies the road trip is one of the most beautiful in the world. Meandering through two national parks the journey is filled with Canada’s mind-blowing nature. We would like to share some of our images captured during our recent cycling tour of this western Canadian paradise. As a result be warned. You may be booking a trip to Canada. 21 Photos to Inspire Your Canada Road Trip Mistaya River While the Mistaya River may be short, its turquoise blue waters are sweet indeed. Flowing from the glacial Peyto Lake, the typical blue color dances it’s way though a portion of the Icefields Parkway. Weeping Wall The mountain that cries. More than 100metres high (330 feet) water streams down Cirrus Mountain in rivers of tears. Lake Louise Lake Louise may be the most photographed lake in the world. While the canoes sleep for the night, light rain dances on the turquoise waters. Bow Lake Bow Lake is a perfect picnic area to stop for lunch. The headwaters of the Bow River that runs through the city of Calgary and eventually to Hudson Bay. Columbia Icefields Straddling Banff and Jasper National Parks, these fields of glaciers are the largest south of the Arctic Circle. In summer months, visitors can either board snow coaches to travel to the glacier or enjoy the view from below. Endless Chain Ridge Endless Chain mountain ridge near Sunwapta Falls stretches some 32 kilometers (20 miles). Tangle Falls Jasper National Park Less falling down a cliff than cascading on steps, Tangle Falls tumbles near the roadway. Mt Chepran and Waterfowl Lakes In the Mistaya River Valley Mt. Chepran stands majestically. Considered a technical climb requiring crampons and an ice axe, therefore not a hike to be tackled without training and preparation. Mossy forest above Sunwapta Falls The mist rises into the mossy forest above Sunwapta Falls. Due to the river forcing it’s way through a tight canyon the roar of the water is deafening. Morraine Lake Morraine Lake nestled in the Valley of the Ten Peaks in Banff National Park. While only half the size of it’s glacial neighbor Lake Louise, it delivers on scenic beauty in a big way. Sunwapta Falls A short walk from the cozy Sunwapta Mountain Lodge the river carves through walls of rock in the heart of Jasper National Park. Cycling the Icefields Parkway We wanted to take our time and take in all of the wonders of the Canada road trip. Hence we spent four days cycling with Mountain Madness Tours 288km (179 mi) through the heart of the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks World Heritage Site. Mt. Rundle and Vermillion Lakes near Banff Outside of Banff, paralleling the highway, Mt Rundle often boasts its iconic reflection in Vermillion Lakes. This pristine gem is off of the main road. Mushroom and Diadem Peaks rest stop Braided waterways occur in rivers with high slope or large sediment. As a result small channels are separated by temporary islands. Mistaya Canyon The Mistaya River plunges into the narrow canyon. Due to the water grinding and dissolving the limestone rock, intricate swirling designs are left in the rock walls. Sunwapta Falls Icefields Parkway Saskatchewan River Crossing At Saskatchewan River Crossing three mighty rivers intersect; the North Saskatchewan, the Howse and the Mistaya. Especially relevant on this Canada road trip it is the only place for basic services including public bathrooms, gas station and a restaurant. Wildflowers waving greetings along the Icefields Parkway Athabasca Falls While Athabasca Falls is not the highest or widest in Jasper National Park it is the most powerful. Over 100 ancient glaciers to be seen on this Canada road trip. With snow capped peaks hovering above, this Canada road trip one feels as though they may be in Switzerland! Peyto Lake In summer when the flow of glacial flour into Peyto Lake is substantial, the tiny rock particles give the lake a bright turquoise colour. At the highest point on the Icefields Parkway Peyto is the crowning glory of beauty. Would you prefer to cycle or drive this great Canadian road trip? Check for tour dates and prices.
