madness - this one is for you steve

Hi all

just finished a jam packed day in calgary. left the hostel arround 8:30 and returned about half an hour ago.

so i first quested after breakfast. quite a challegning task. but i found a tom hortons (whoops me dumb - late edit) and that did me fine and then i conintued on to my next port of call. the CANDA OLYMPIC PARK home of the 88 olympic games. location of a zip line off a ski jump where you get to over 100 kms an hour!!! yes i did that. and i did the luge and i walked up and down along side a bobsleigh run. GIGITY!!!
i have photos of where i zipped off and down to. it was very fun. it was nearly beaten by the bungee in the mall but zip line won.

3 pm i arrive at the calgary stampeed grounds. just like the royal melbourne show site but with rodeo. and looked arround and checked it all out. then i went and visited the flames central. kinda cool but bizzare. one of the best sports bars i have ever been to.

so its up early tomorrow and off to montreal. will blog for you tomorrow

What manner of place is Tom Robbins? It made me think of Baskin Robbins - did you have ice cream for breakfast?
