I've been super lazy on the blogging front this past week. And it's not because I haven't been doing anything worth writing about. I've done lots of interesting things. And it's not because I've been working too hard. Because I haven't - I'm on holidays. So, I guess it's just that I've been lazy. Briefly, here's what I've been up to ...
|
An 'old' Main Street at Heritage Park |
- Seeing 'Ova', the latest Cirque du Soleil offering. Wow. It was my first time to a Cirque show and it didn't disappoint.
- Visiting Heritage Park, an 'old' historical village which is a little bit like Sovereign Hill for the Victorians in the crowd, but not as fun or authentic.
|
Old fashioned trains at Heritage Park |
- Visiting the Calgary Zoo and oooing and ahhhing over the size of the Grizzly Bear's claws and realising that, no, I really don't need to see one of these whilst hiking.
- Running around the river and kicking up the autumn leaves.
|
Check out the views of the mountains from this Heritage Park ride! |
- Researching Westie breeders and dreaming of a puppy.
- Battling many Canadian bureaucratic agencies.
- Eating and drinking too much at two Thanksgiving dinners. Yummo.
- Taking in a Wordfest event in downtown Calgary. We saw 5 authors speak in a literary/musical event which was an odd combination.
- Procrastinating about starting my last coursework assignment for my Masters.
- Buying books online to take back to Australia (they are SO much cheaper here).
- Going on weekend drives and bike rides with C.
- Walking into town and working out at the YMCA.
- Looking forward to heading back to Australia to see family and friends.
Now I know that this is an incredibly lazy blog entry, but I will aim to write more over the next few weeks, including some more detailed entries about some of the above events. Until then, a cup of tea and the weekend papers await me on the couch ...
