Day 4, the Fun Begins

Mike and I took a quick ride last night but he was still sleeping when I decided to try and find a way to the Fish Creek Park. I told Sal I'd be back in an hour, grabbed my phone, the Garmin and Eowyn. In about a half hour I came up to a spot I'm sure I scoped out with streetview a week ago. A path went through an opening in the homes and off in the distance I could see the Rockies. A few hundred yards up the pathway I found a sign labelling it as The Bow River Pathway. The view was amazing, Rockies to the west and the cityscape to the north. I'll be back there soon, going to try and make it all the way to downtown. Calgary boasts over 700km of paths, most in North America. May not see them all but going to give it a go.
We were heading for downtown until rain started finding us so we diverted to the CrossIron Mills Mall for some shopping. I found a pair of shorts in Bass Pro Shops, a store I probably would never have even gone into. Had some sushi in the food court and was surprised at how good it was. Chef Mike is preparing risotto for supper. Something I've never tried.
