The Grizzly Paw Brewing Company

     This Monday 20th of January, we had a little trip to a local beer and soda brewery in Canmore, one hour drive from Lake Louise, the Grizzly Paw Brewing Company. That trip was organized by the Hotel and we went a few people from different departments, mostly us from the deli and the rest were bartenders from other restaurants. The goal was to know better about the product we were selling, which was new for us. We did not only try honey ale or raspberry ale, we also tried different kind of sodas, like ginger beer, grapefruit, cream soda, orange cream, root beer or black cherry. The cool thing about those sodas is that they have less sugar then other pops, they are also less sparkling so pretty easy to drink.

 

Calgary Tower

     Today was my last day in Calgary, I am actually already in Banff, staying in the Fairmont Banff Springs. I had to check out early today but shops didn't open till noon so I just tried to do the best of it, walking a little bit around. Before I left I decided to have lunch at the Calgary Tower, enjoying the view above the city, sitting on a table in a restaurant with a spinning floor, kind of got dizzy ;)

Vacation Vacation!

      Finally some vacation!!! I really needed this... After ten days straight working, including seven over night shift I decided to take some time off and to go away from work, to unplug myself and relax, also with the plan to give myself an advanced birthday present. So I came to Calgary, and at this moment I am staying at the Fairmont Palliser, right now the best place on earth for me! (Staff discount is making this possible ;)
