Big naked people. Need I say more? Nearly a dozen giant naked people greeted me on the grounds of the Calgary Education Centre. Their indistinct genitals notwithstanding, the 21-foot humans - men, women, and children - represent a family of sorts.

the 18th floor of the Hyatt Regency Calgary has two things that I found appealing. A pool, and a great view of downtown Calgary.

The TransCanada Highway runs from coast to coast of one of the largest countries in the world. It crosses vast barren landscapes, it climbs rugged mountain passes, it bisects small towns, and it navigates large cities. In Calgary, Alberta, for almost 50 years it has conveyed traffic that slows to a crawl to pass Peters' Drive-In, "The Drive-In You Can't Drive By".

Take a breather and check out this still fairly unknown winter-holiday destination. If you hate to stay in line for hours for the ski lift or restaurants then this is the right place for you to bring your family to. There are 68 runes from black diamond to green beginner slopes here as well - there's definitely something for everybody!

Here are some women you can look up to and not just because they're taller than you. In 1929, Emily Murphy, Henrietta Muir Edwards, Louise McKinney, Irene Parlby, and Nellie McClung fought for the recognition of women as persons under the British North America Act (in Canada). Though the "Persons' Case" was their most significant achievement, these five women dedicated their lives to improving their communities in innumerable ways, serving to instill a spirit of strength and leadership that could be drawn upon for years to come.

In Banff and looking for something do to? Get the heck away from that tacky souvenir shop and find your way to the Banff Gondola. Get on to Mountain Avenue and follow the Gondola/Hot Springs signs. Soon enough you'll be elevated 698m to the summit (2281m above sea level), and the view will take your breath away (the thin air also helps with that).

If alpine activities are your thing, then Kicking Horse Mountain Resort is your place. Snow covered mountains that reach the skies (2450 m. summit peak) offer the best snowboarding and skiing the world has seen. With 106 runs, an average snowfall of over 650 cm and thousands of acres of open slopes and bowls....this mountain offers it all!

Große, nackte Menschen. Muss ich mehr sagen? Fast ein Dutzend riesiger nackter Menschen begrüßte mich auf dem Gelände des Calgary Education Centre. Obwohl ihre Genitalien nur undeutlich erkennbar sind, zeigen die 6,5 Meter hohen Menschen – Männer, Frauen und Kinder – eine Art Familie.
