ALBERTA ROAD TRIP - BANFF 🐻👈🏼

[@jennifergriffith1287]

I’m so glad you saw “your” bear. It’s always gratifying to get a gift from Mother Nature that confirms the beauty of our planet and every tear was justified.🐻

[@deerheart87]

It made me choke up x

[@sarahthatcher123]

It was so interesting to see someone's reaction to seeing a bear. I have grown up in Nelson, BC and quite literally played in the mountains my entire childhood and youth. I have been seeing bears my entire life. We did a lot of camping. So many bear stories. Once a bear crawled into the back of the 'station wagon'( in the 70's) where my mom was having a nap. My dad, sister and I were in the camper. We woke up to my mom screaming ...my dad ran out with an axe and scared it away. I can still remember seeing it trying to back itself out of the station wagon. I now live in Kelowna , BC in a slightly rural neighbourhood and in the last 10 years I've seen 5 bears out on my neighbourhood walks. Two of them, too close for comfort. A huge mama bear was protecting her two cubs and lunged out of some tall grass at me and gave a huge roar. One of my most terrifying encounters. That was literally only 100 yards from my front door. All that to say, it is a good reminder for me to see your reaction and not take the amazing wildlife we have here for granted.

[@EmmaHill]

Yes Im glad we saw him/her from a safe distance 😍

[@jenwood6405]

I live in Nelson and see bears almost every week in the summer 🐻sometimes in my yard

[@rosesavage1980]

I don’t usually comment on vlogs, but I had to on your trip to Canada. The 3 vlogs on your trip were the most enjoyable I’ve seen. You both are so enthusiastic and entertaining. Thanks for taking us along. PS I love your fashion vlogs as well.

[@EmmaHill]

Thank you ❤️

[@michelley1621]

The Canadian tourism authority needs to hire you guys as official ambassadors and invite you back yearly so we can get more of these vlogsss

[@irenes.n1502]

Absolutely 🤗👌🏼

[@kerrilee501]

It appears I feel the same as many Canadians who have posted...that we appreciate the beauty of our country but appreciate your vlogs to help remind us of how lucky we are. Hopefully those that come visit enjoy it as much as you and Simon have. I haven't been to Jasper and Banff for years but think I'll be going back soon! Thank you for sharing!

[@katharineleeder9348]

I watch all your uploads but I must say these 3 of your trip have been amazing and so very well done! I’m sad your trip is over as well!

[@s.leayoung5456]

Hi Emma and Simon, Thank you so much for sharing your trip with us. Canada is very beautiful and some of the scenery leaves you nearly speechless doesn't it? Loved the blue water !!!!

[@EmmaHill]

It really did 😍

[@florstokes3419]

It's just MAGICAL! Thank you Emma & Simon! for tagging us along :) :) Soooo glad that you guys saw your Bear and the Snow, Beautiful views! This is an excellent video! Well done Guys! Happy Sunday! Big Hugs!

[@annmark9150]

Wonderful trip! Thanks for taking us with you - we enjoyed every minute!

[@EmmaHill]

❤️

[@djl9647]

That video was SO charming!!! Like children on Christmas Morning!!!

[@JenniferSmith-je3se]

Really enjoyed your vlog Emma. You visited lots of places that we visited last Sept. Would have loved to visit the Wolf sanctuary. Thanks for taking us on the journey with you.

[@nancyneyedly4587]

Ahh my old stomping grounds! In Banff you were right beside Johnston Canyon, exceptional hike, lake, waterfalls, blue pools called the inkpots. Also in Banff the sulfur hotsprings, sooo great! Glad you got to safely see your bear!

[@EmmaHill]

We wanted to try the hot spring but just didn't have time - we chose to do a small hike along the river instead. But gives us reason to return 👍🏼

[@dreadedmegmain]

@@EmmaHill Not sure why you didn't have time, you went to the hotel hot tubs. The springs are open until 11pm in October. It's best to go at night anyway, between 9 and 11pm they are quite dead. Sometimes a fog will roll in and truly make it a special little spot.

[@Fatima-gg2lx]

This road trip is absolutely super cool ! Banff is really cool ! 👌👌😘😘

[@ieily]

When I went to Oregon 2 years ago we were driving towards Cannon Beach (The Goonies beach!) and all of a sudden this huge bear crosses the road running right in front of us. My friend is local there and he told me he only had seen a bear once in his life before!!! How lucky were we Emma, so grateful we were honoured the sight of such amazing animals! Absolutely love these Canada blogs, outstanding editing and content. 💝 and massive 🤗

[@EmmaHill]

Truly honoured, we are very lucky. 😍 And were glad you enjoyed them ❤️

[@conniestrand5727]

[@jillhall9402]

Emma thank you so much for sharing your wonderful vacation with us. It was so enjoyable to see the places that you visited.

[@xindigochildx]

Roots sweatpants are EVERYTHING! Soo glad you're enjoying my home country. xo

[@matildaonvideo]

So glad you had a great trip and got your bear sighting Emma! I was lucky to spot a young grizzly on a road outside Banff a couple of years ago - we sat in the car for almost an hour watching while he grazed about 10 metres away. When a choir started singing hymns in a nearby mountain lodge (!!), the wind blew the music our way and the bear looked up and listened 😭🐻💚 I was in bits! x

[@EmmaHill]

😍

[@alisonmckenzie1415]

Thank you Emma & Simon for sharing your wonderful Canadian adventure . So want to go now the scenery was breathtaking and the wildlife were amazing. Cheers guys Xx

[@suziejames7510]

Three amazing videos, thanks guys xx

[@cheekyllamacreations]

Just wonderful to watch this series. Thank you for taking us along on your adventure 🐻🐺 xx

[@pEAcEgrL8]

I'm obsessed with this trip and this vlog series!! Alberta has moved way up on my list of travel destinations, so gorgeous!

[@jacquelinemoseley2976]

Amazing .... Canada is on my bucket list, I really want to go now .... Your journey has been amazing. Thank you x x 😀

[@emskit9344]

Enjoyed this so much. Thanks for sharing. Canada looks amazing 😍

[@barbarella9827]

Wow wow and wow Emma & Simon! How amazing was that! That bear knew you'd waited long enough so made an appearance especially for you 🐻😍

[@laureeylenbosch688]

Thank you for sharing your journey🥰 it definitely got me excited to visit Canada ☺️

[@pamelaatkinsonscats2873]

Wow, what an amazing trip! A bear and wolves! I couldn't work out if Banff was cold or warm. You had on a big jumper and coat and Simon was in a very fetching t-shirt. Fantastic scenery, Canada looks like an incredible place!

[@EmmaHill]

It was still chilly, but compared to the temperatures we had in Lake Louise and Jasper, it was quite mild. Simon has a higher tolerance to the cold than I do 😂

[@WendyDerblich]

One of my absolute favourite places in Canada! Thanks for sharing all the wonderful places you visited and stayed at! 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️

[@DeborahSutherlandDebinPei]

Omg, I'm falling in love with my own country all over again with your videos and enthusiasm 💜🇨🇦🍂🍁🐾

[@michelledry499]

Great job on the vacation videos. I certainly will consider going on your trip in the future. So glad you got to be in the snow:)

[@emzallan]

So pleased you saw a bear! Only just started watching and I'm already so excited for this vlog! Seems like you both had a brilliant time, thanks for taking the time to film during your holiday. It must take so much extra time to vlog x

[@DaisyEllie1]

By far these have been my fave vlogs. Xx

[@sweethh121]

Wow amazing footage! Tourism Alberta should send you a great big fat cheque! Loved this vlog series.

[@sophieschoices9663]

Loved following you on this trip! Definitely on my bucket list now, Canada really does have amazing “untouched” places!!

[@EmmaHill]

It really does 😍

[@constancewright1404]

I’m so happy you loved Canada 🇨🇦! I couldn’t call anywhere but Alberta home 🏡❤️ Simon lol is of course the most comedic travel companion. Iv travelled through the mountains so many times and seen only one bear! You’re so lucky 🍀

[@ashleys5453]

I LOVE that you got to see a bear and it SNOWED!! You showed this dreamy part of Canada so well!! Now im jonesing to book a flight out there!

[@Amanda1985B]

Oh my these lakes are so beautiful! Almost other worldly! Great edit Simon, thank you both so much for sharing your adventures!

[@simoncreasey4067]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed them. They were fun to make and edit 😁

[@carlaswinand7639]

Thank you so much for your Canada vlogs!! Such a beautiful holiday!!😍🏔❄️🐻🌲

[@annacabble4111]

Looks like the best vaca ever, thank you both for the tag along. I have so enjoyed it and Emma I would have cried seeing a bear as well

[@annlittlejohn1454]

What a terrific series!!! I love how much you packed in, and the videography and editing was superb. Well done♡

[@EmmaHill]

Thank you ❤️

[@simoncreasey4067]

Thank you 😁

[@nicolaparmar-skjaeveland1671]

Emma looks like you had an amazing time, I have been thinking of doing a Canada trip, now I want to go there even more. I loved these blogs. Emma maybe you should do a vlog, when you get back about the places you visit, and how you booked the trip. Great videos.

[@skylilly1]

Gondola's give me the willies, too!! Just thrilled you two got to see a bear! :) Such beautiful views oh my gosh!

[@Grahamcracker6366]

I get tears when I see wild animals, too.

[@leelarsen7330]

A Graham Me too, like today when my husky and I got trampled by wild horses.

[@367Play]

Such an incredible trip. And you saw your Bear!! Thanks for sharing everything with us-the landscape is stunning. Now I want to go 😊

[@theduchessofmearns]

Excellent vlogs. Such a lovely country !

[@fiwheatley3248]

Great blogs, thanks so much for including us, really enjoyed your trip. Xxxx

[@angelabriseno5141]

Yay you got to see your bear 🐻 and so glad to hear you stayed your distance unfortunately some people don’t and there have been unfortunate situations , Thank you Emma and Simon for sharing this amazing vlog !

[@carolineholzwarth6360]

Such a fun,exciting trip. You were so fortunate to see a bear. Suggestion for your next trip should be Glacier, Yellowstone, and Dinosaur National Parks in the US. All beautiful and very majestic.

[@suerogers7409]

Oh I was in Banff last year and fell in love. Thanks for sharing. This footage is brilliant 😍. I wonder what time of the year this is filmed. Hubby and I are headed back in a couple of years. Can’t wait 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🥰🥰🥰

[@EmmaHill]

We were there from middle to end of September this year 👍🏼

[@suerogers7409]

Emma Hill thank you for replying. I think my husband and I will plan a trip there during the month of September- oooh can’t wait 😁😁😁

[@mettana1]

Sooo interesting, all 3 of them. You two create great travel/ holiday videos. They always keep my low attention span interested til the end! A belated welcome home.

[@EmmaHill]

Thank you, were glad you enjoyed them ❤️

[@jenniferclark8666]

I was waiting for a Bear sighting! Omg the Bear! He was beautiful! Loved all 3 videos and now plan on going to beautiful Canada! 😊

[@EmmaHill]

Glad you enjoyed them ❤️

[@gailsmail9852]

You did us proud Guys 🇨🇦thank you. So happy you enjoyed your stay. And you found your 🧸🥰

[@marinaciric4625]

Dear Emma, these Canada vlogs are beautiful! 🐻🌲 And how emotional you were to see the bear. Sooo cute. Nice to see how much you enjoyed this experience. LOL💖

[@EmmaHill]

It really was one of our best trips. 😍

[@melindar3872]

These trip vlogs have been amazing. Thank-you so much for taking us all along with you. So beautiful. 🇨🇦❤️

[@kimberlysidor9427]

Thank goodness you didn’t go on the Jasper gondola 🚡. I love heights and I had a panic attack while on it. It’s so tiny, you have to stand and it’s open to the outside from the shoulders up. It was so windy when we went up that we had to stop at a tower and wait for 20 minutes. We just hung there swinging in the wind. I thought we were going to die. When we finally got to the top it had cleared off but then then a huge thunderstorm rolled in and we were trapped for 3 hours. I am glad I got to do it because now I never have to do it again. I’m glad you enjoyed Yamnuska Sanctuary. Those puppies are amazing. 🐺🐻🦌

[@EmmaHill]

That would terrify me, think I would have to walk back down 😂

[@courtneymcquaid6275]

I've loved watching these vlogs! I'm so happy you had a great time in my homeland, Alberta is beautiful! Sending love from Canada!

[@EmmaHill]

Im glad you enjoyed them ❤️

[@adeleturner1255]

Loved joining you on your Canadian road trip. Beautiful filming and editing too, as always. 💖👍😍

[@etuyaetuya7532]

I very like your travel vlogs big 💜 for you guys

[@EmmaHill]

Thank you ❤️

[@unamynes4561]

Amazing Emma and Simon really enjoyed the Canada 🇨🇦 vlogs such a beautiful country ❤️

[@kshmyr]

YOU SAW A BEAR!!! I am obsessed with bears and am so happy when visitors appreciate them as much as I do!

[@karendarlingartist]

I think you’ve done an amazing job of filming and editing. The music and b-roll and time lapse interspersed give the videos great flow and interest. Glad you liked our lovely country 😊🇨🇦

[@secnew2852]

Hi Emma and Simon. Thank you sooooo much for sharing your road trip with us, it's amazing. You have inspired us to visit Canada. Have a wonderful weekend.

[@simoncreasey4067]

❤️

[@johnlorturner7014]

Woooooooooooooow! I luv to see it too the 🐻 so awesome how much more if I’m with you guys lol.... I’ll be shocked 😳 or happy tears 🤣 love the place so beautiful 😍 is relaxing 😌 place thank you guys for sharing!!

[@angelablackburn6268]

So good!!!!

[@josieleugner546]

Amazing videos and we like to travel just like you guys😉 Along time ago now we traveled around Calefornia in three weeks, stopping anywhere we liked the look of. It was amazing and we only had a couple of doggy places we stayed in, makes for great story telling. I'd love to fly to Canada some time🥰

[@yaeko53]

I enjoy very much.I never been Canada just WOW...

[@ihogenhuis960]

Ah Emma, how special that grizley bear! I would have gotten emotional as well. Totally get it! ❤

[@oblivion0291]

loved these Canada vlogs, just as I imagine the perfect travel vlog to be like! The wolf dogs

[@beverlycollins4283]

Myself living not far from where you were in Toronto. The Moose, wolf, coyote, deer and bear are common sites where I live in South Dakota. We also have mountain lions in the Black Hills of South Dakota but they are heavily persecuted. We have very few left. I absolutely adore people who love to get out and walk among the trees and the snow. To go out and admire the beautiful water. Emma, you and Simon will have a lifetime of wonderful memories. You did go to some very beautiful places. Thank you for vlogging your trip. I've never been to Toronto. It indeed was very beautiful. Have a safe trip home.

[@simoncreasey4067]

❤️

[@littlechicky0206]

Emma! I know exactly what you were feeling each time the gondola approached the next tower. I took a gondola up Whistler Mountain in Vancouver. I was a little less stressed than you seemed to be the journey up, but those brake checks by each tower were NOT reassuring whatsoever! Lol. Glad you did it tho! Thanks for these vlogs, loved them!

[@gillianwallace]

Wow! What amazing vlogs! Loved them x ❤️

[@josephinesullivan1199]

Looked like a great trip!

[@sarahleonard1922]

The fairmont is spooky cause a ghost haunt the hotel!! haha :) Wonderful blog. I love Peyto Lake

[@vivienmcnaul109]

Nice to watch and enjoy. Don't think I'll ever go, loved the lake shaped like a wolf 😃💚💕

[@natatatt]

It's cool to see this part of the world through someone else's eyes. Bears are quite common here in Vancouver (they roam into the suburbs since we're squished up against the mountains), so I don't get too excited when I see them. But your reaction reminds me to appreciate the wildlife we have a bit more. : )

[@jutka12]

I enjoyed your Canada vlogs so much! I love how excited you get over the wildlife, it’s pretty cute 💕. Did you know that if you come in the winter, you can take sled dog tours out of Canmore? They are amazing, you get a dog team, and go mushing for a while, then have a bonfire and some hot chocolate then return with your sled team. The dogs are amazing and so much fun! I’m hoping to do this as my New Year’s Eve celebration this year!!!

[@vee1324]

Wow it all looked amazing..... you're so lucky AND I'M SOOOOOO JEALOUS!!

[@hennyvanbavel3148]

Lovely. Great memories. What a beautiful trip. Have a nice Sunday. X

[@olgaantoshkin9636]

Canada is definitely in my bucket list for places to visit after I saw your wonderful trip! Also, the Yamnushka Wolf Dog Sanctuary touched my heart deeply so I have made a donation by sponsoring a wolfdog!

[@EmmaHill]

❤️❤️❤️

[@kellysday]

I live in close to banff.I am so glad you loved this trip!

[@charivill8815]

What a beautiful view 😍😍😍 Thanks for sharing this another awesome video.👏😊

[@michellewinfrey7653]

Great series.im the same on cable cars.in maderia we had car 13!i was convinced it was a bad omen.so pleased to get off🤗

[@EmmaHill]

😂

[@toniacoward3319]

Well I throughly enjoyed watching your Canadian trip, thanks so much for sharing it with us. It is a stunning part of the world. X

[@jo6159]

I am loving these vlogs, so beautifully shot. Its really making me want to visit Canada x

[@melledelvani]

Breathtaking views 😍 living vicariously through y’all. My friends are in Wyoming having a winter wonderland whilst it’s still warm down in Texas. What gives?! Although I don’t normally love heights, those cable cars look fun 🤣

[@lauragomezllanos2916]

I have only visited Montréal. Your trip looks amazing : ) I love how happy you were.

[@denisefairhurst7255]

Loved following this road trip, my cousin has just moved from Whistler to Calgary and I’m desperate to get out and see her.

[@belleke18]

Ok, I really want to go to Canada now, it looks unreal! Sooooo gorgeous!

[@XO2HKIM]

SOOO ADORABLE 14:01, reminds my of my beloved Husky 🥰🥰🥰

[@Frick_79]

Awww, so sad these are over! So happy you got to see a bear 🐻 it’s something truly special to see them in their natural habitats. The fear was real for Simon’s Gucci trainers on that log though 🙈😬😂 I’ve taken notes of where you guys stayed and can hopefully put all the info you’ve given to us to use in the future as it’s definitely on our travel list. Thank you for showing us Canada’s beauty in all its glory and glad you had an amazing trip ❤️

[@lauraaa277]

What an epic trip. Now I want to go!

[@lindachapman9765]

Watching this again Aug 2020, loved them the first time, so here i am again xxx

[@Debbiesdilemmas]

Emma thank you for showing me some beautiful parts of my country. I have lived in Canada (Ontario) my entire long life and have never seen most of its beauty. I usually vacation outside of Canada but really need to make time to visit the other provinces.
