Calgary day 2







Monday August 24th- So today we woke up and started the blog. After getting ready, packing and checking out of the hotel, we headed to downtown for breakfast. We found a great place, Toshy's family Restaurant, serving breakfast until 11am. Thank god we got there before 11am, because they were kicking people out after 11! When the waitress came over to take our order, I order an omelet, and Bob was shocked to hear what I was ordering, because he didn't flip the menu over. After Breakfast, we did a little shopping on our way back to the car. We decided to sit at Starbucks and use my 2 free hours of WiFi. Glenda and Diana called and said they were at the border, so we expected them in a couple of hours, about 2pm. We finished at Starbucks, and decided to drive to Three Sisters Mountain area. We drove up and checked out the Hotel we were going to stay in, then drove around the area checking out the amazing houses and hiking trails. We did see our first coyote see the attached picture, we caught him littering on the side of the road. We decided that it wouldn't be too much longer, so we hung out and ate chips and read. After a long hour they showed up. After all the hugs and chatting we went to check in. After two full porter carts of luggage, we unpacked and relaxed. Later we went in to Canmore to find a place to eat dinner. We headed to the Iron Goat Pub & Grill, www.irongoat.ca. We sat on the patio and watched the sunset and had a wonderful dinner. After dinner we drove through town stopped at the grocery store to pick up breakfast and lunch for the next day and then headed back to chat till bedtime.
