Steve walked the Lake Louise and Moraine Lake area on July 6th and Johnston Canyon area on July 7th.
Such beautiful places, they are very popular tourist destinations! So, as he walked and hiked he met people from not only all over Canada but from all over the world!!
Just to name a few, he met people from Switzerland, Spain, France, Taiwan, China, the United.States and even Japan!!! We hope the people we encountered will enjoy checking this blog, possibly connect with the charitable organizations linked-in here on the right hand side of the screen. Steve was glad to meet and talk with each and every one of you - as you help us spread our message to the world! We hope they will take our message home with them and share it with friends and family in their home countries!
And also he heard various stories about disaster relief fundraising that their country or region did for Japan. It was great to hear that a lot of people think about this cause and have done something to help in their own way. Thank you for your support! Gambaro JAPAN!!
This walk, the "Gambaro Japan" - Walk for Japan, is Steve's way. It is a "Walk and Talk", which aims at reminding people that the Japan relief effort is far from over, and in continual need of our thoughts, goodwill, understanding as well as donations.
I ( Steve's wife ) usually drive the support vehicle, but for these two days I walked with him on a few legs. It was interesting to notice that by simply walking with his gear on ("Walk for Japan" across his chest, Canadian and Japanese flags on his backpack) people who merely see him in passing seem to take pause and have a chance to think about Japan. Even though Steve is always looking for the opportunity to explain what he is doing and share his message with the people he meets, it seems even his presence is an effective step towards the objective of this walk. As I tried to keep up to him on the hikes (he tries to maintain a brisk pace!) I could hear people talking about his event or Japan after they passed by him.
It is a great feeling that as I support his walk, I feel I am supporting Japan!!
