This year, instead of one big vacation, we are taking several mini vacations. This was partially due to uncertainties around Covid, and partially because I was hoping to head to Rome with my sister at the end of the summer. Who knows when that will happen...
But what has happened is the first of our mini vacations: a trip to Calgary. Originally we were going to go to Calaway Park a couple of our days, but they haven't opened yet - again due to Covid. However, we can be flexible...
Our trip started with the leisurely drive down to Calgary on a Thursday afternoon.
We explored a bit along the way, stopping at JJ Collett Natural Area.
None of us had ever been here, but we'd definitely consider stretching our legs there again. I let Calista have the camera and she loved stopping to take photos of flowers, ducks, and streams.
