Where did I go?

I went to Banff, Alberta, Canada and the surrounding area for 8 days to visit my brother. I went skiing in the most glorious of powder, on hills steeper than I’ve been on in a long time. I even did moguls. I did a double diamond, and lots of regular diamonds, and also some bowls. I went in the hot tub and to the hot springs. I ate yummy home cooked meals in the condo with my mom, dad, brother, and Trevor. I watched the stars come out over the Canadian wilderness. I didn’t see the Northern Lights. I went on a walk to see frozen waterfalls on a snowy and icy trail in my tennis shoes. Why; because I’m stupid and left my hiking boots in the USA. Did I buy new ones? Heck No! I’ve learned that Canada, especially Calgary and Banff, as well as Fernie, BC is rather expensive. Beautiful, though. I would really like to go back there in summertime.

Here are some pictures, just a few, to highlight some sights (to be added soon...).
