Stan had to visit Banff for work so we tagged along to help break up the monotony of our dreary winter. They have a museum there with real stuffed animals. The kids love that sort of thing. Here's some of the pictures we took while we were there. We learned that Banff was the first National Park in Canada, established in 1885 or so. The building that this museum is located in, was built in the early 1900s and it's the original one. It has been updated but it's a pretty neat place.
There were five different antlers that we had to indentify. We got them all right! Do you know what this is?
Macy liked all the animals except the dark grey wolf. She's just cute next to anything.
A little bit about the building.
And here they are after we visited one of the candy shops, in front of the museum. We stayed the night in Calgary at a favorite hotel that Stan stays at frequently for work and had a great time swimming. No pictures of the swimming. I seem to forget the work it takes to travel "alone" with the kids since Stan was busy, but I still think it was worth it to get away from our house for a couple of days.
