Our Honeymoon: Day 1

The Monday following our wedding we flew to Calgary in Alberta Canada. We were greeted with a gray sky and rain. Plus it was a bit colder than we expected, but we made the most of our visit. We headed over to Calgary Tower, which is free standing observation tower in downtown Calgary. We were able to get a better view of the city, which was filled with construction cranes (The building industry is booming in Canada!). You can see cranes in the picture below just above Eric's feet.


There was a section of the floor that was all glass. Eric made me go out on the glass even though I am super scared of heights. I think he thought it was pretty entertaining. See as I grasp the metal column for dear life.


On our way out of Calgary Tower we ran into a very nice beaver that was dressed as a Canadian Mountie. What can I say? I can never pass up photo opportunities like this...


We only spent a couple of hours in Calgary and then drove our rental car to Banff, which was about 1.5 hours away. The town of Banff is surrounded by snow capped mountains and located in beautiful Banff National Park. We took the rest of our evening to stroll down the main street and grab a late dinner.


On tomorrow's docket, find some wildlife.
