Return to Calgary

Its so nice to have a bit of a lie-in although I woke up at 8.15 to me thats still a lie-in.
I had breakfast in the dining room, yes the usual bacon and eggs, I thought as I was going on a long drive it was better that I dont stop too many times on the way.
I packed my bags and put them in the car, I paid for my extas at the hotel lobby and I was on my way to Calgary. It was around 11.30am and the sun was shining it was going to be a really nice drive. I stopped to fill up with petrol and off I set, the drive really was beautiful 250 km or more of great views and blue sunshine, I put on my ipod because there was no radio broadcast and soaked up the views, I must have seen only 6 to 8 cars on the whole journey and I thought if only it was like this in the uk!
I got to Banff and did a quick bit of shopping as well as pay for those skis especially as they were so nice to ski on. Then headed to Canmore, I wanted to get a cuddly husky dog to take home for each of the girls.
Then it was straight to Calgary, I drove right past the COP which was all lit up and it looked wonderful, as I came into Calgary I spotted a Sportcheck shop so I stopped to buy a ski bag for my new skis and while I was in there I also bought a new pair of running shoes.
I had a bite to eat at a Subway Outlet then got to The Fairmont Palliser Hotel in Downtown Calgary at around 10pm I was told to check in on the 8th Floor because I was a gold member! I was taken to my room which turned out to be a suite it was huge and very nice I had a huge sitting room and bedroom and a kitchen!
I decided to take the hire car back to Avis which was just round the corner from the hotel and I dropped the keys in through a special letter box. Then it was back to the hotel for a bit of TV to relax then off to bed.
