Calgary Travel Blogs

Background: A land of vast distances and rich natural resources, Canada became a self-governing dominion in 1867 while retaining ties to the British crown. Economically and technologically the nation has developed in parallel with the US, its neighbor to the south across an unfortified border. Canada's paramount political problem is meeting public demands for quality improvements in health care and education services after a decade of budget cuts. The issue of reconciling Quebec's francophone heritage with the majority anglophone Canadian population has moved to the back burner in recent years; support for separatism abated after the Quebec government's referendum on independence failed to pass in October of 1995.

Banff to Calgary North America » Canada » Alberta » Calgary
From Marja The last few days has meant saying goodbye to the Rocky Mountains. It's a bit sad as it was so spectacular. We ended on a high point with a helicopter flight and I got some very good photos out the window. Calgary is a nice town and I spent the time winding down from the tour and getting the washing of clothes sorted. I still haven't had a bad meal in Canada and the service is excellent. To add to my holiday happiness they have a lot of "Dog the Bounty Hunter" on TV. I love Dog. I especially [View Full Entry]

After our trip to the Rocky Mountains I stayed a few days in Calgary. Glenbow museum, Kensington and the zoo were a few of the things I went to visit. I stayed as well with Marina's brother Austin and with my first Canadian couchsurfing hosts that were really great. [View Full Entry]

Here We Go! North America » Canada » Alberta » Calgary
Alright boys and girls ... I'm off to Africa this Thursday! I'm not sure what I have been feeling lately ... I only start with this because that's pretty much the first thing people ask when I tell them about my plan for the year. It's a mixture between EXTREME excitment and a little anxiety ... only because I have little idea of what I'm getting into. South Africa ... well Africa is pretty foreign to me. Europe is old news now. With 2 trips to Spain and Portugal under my belt I feel like I could travel there again with [View Full Entry]

Calgary - Shopping As we are missing one of our bags we were missing clothing and other bits and bobs "& things like that" we needed to do some shopping. Calgary is an easy drive about an hour away straight down the highway. We thought that before we started shopping we get something to east so we stopped for a "snack" at Barley Mill pub. Tray has mini Yorkshire puddings stuffed with gravy and beef... really nice. [View Full Entry]

She's on her way! North America » Canada » Alberta » Calgary
Hello to all of Robyn's friends and family! Robyn is on her way tomorrow morning to Central America for up to a year, and as a surprise I have set her up on travel blog. I'm hoping that she will keep us up to date every once in a while on her latest adventures. I know she is going to have a life changing and fantastic year, and it is an incredible experience to be able to share that with family and friends as she processes it. I'm so proud of Robyn because she has decided to do this trip on [View Full Entry]

It's hard to believe that it's only a week away. I packed my back pack again yesterday. I think I have everything I'm going to need. It's really weird going through everything and deciding if I need another T-shirt or if I should leave the space for one of the numerous souvenirs I'm going to pick up along the road. After going through all the material objects I have gathered over the years it has all come down to a simple cooler of items that I want to keep. Even those items are things that close friends have given me over [View Full Entry]

Had another going away party out at Jameson's Pub to say bye to friends and some family. It was a fun night and I made up a quiz and divided everyone up into 2 teams and there was a ton of cheating going on haha but it was fun! I will miss each and every person that was there that night and I'm so happy that I got to see you guys before I left! Love to all of you!!! [View Full Entry]

Globalfest!! North America » Canada » Alberta » Calgary
My parents and I headed down to Globalfest at Elliston Park to watch Canada put on a wicked fireworks display. There are all kinds of cultural pavilions set up and everything for a bunch of different countries. We saw Brazilian dancers, Ukranian dancers, native dancers and some bollywood. It was cool. We ate some Indian food and Filipino food, yum yum!!! Canada put on a great display of fireworks after we all stood and sang the national anthem haha. Enjoy all the pics and videos!!

After a couple of hours of decorating in the sunshine and then a stupid rain shower I was ready for family to come over for a backyard bbq to say goodbye to me. It was a really great time and some relatives all the way from Saskatchewan were able to make it for my party! The theme was obviously Hawaii, NZ and OZ inspired. I had an inflatable palm tree up as well as an 8 foot tall hanging palm tree up. It was big potluck deal so everyone brought food inspired from those 3 countries. The food was AMAZING!!!
