Banff!!

Hey guys! Are you enjoying this long weekend? Today I went to Banff with my homestay mother. We had the activity for Banff about one month ago, but that time I was very busy for the student visa problem. I really wanted to join the Banff's activity. My homestay mother knew that. I'm going to go back to Japan next month.Then she gave me a chance to go there.
We woke up early today and prepared. We planted to go there just 1 day, but you know girls usually bring a lot of stuff! We also brought many CDs, some snacks and blankets. Before leaving, I checked banff's weather. It's said that it will be much colder than Calgary. That why we brought blankets even we planted go there by a car. She likes to listen to music and sing songs. A way to go there, we sang songs together like the Karaoke. I don't usually listen to English songs, but I go to school with her almost everyday. So I remenbered some of her favorite songs. It was freezing and windy in Banff. We didn't have enough time to go to the hot spring. And we thought after the hot spring, we might be very tired and sleepy. I am ok, but she has to drive.. So we went shopping and enjoyed marvelous Rocky mountains! It was great, wonderful and tremendous day. I took many pictures. I put some of them. You can see them!
I heard from my friend that there are many japanese pepole in Banff. I heared some Japanese and saw lots of Japanese signs on the streets. I think they could be ski players or snowboard players. I want to go to Banff again for snowboarding!!!!!!

Wow! What a great trip! When I was in Banff, it's really exciting, too. But, you shoul take a rest for next class. Anyway you might be used to some adjectives which are marvelous, great, wonderful, and tremendous something like that from the Chalie's chocolate factory, right? Actually, I am nervous to the Chalie's book. ㅡ.ㅡ;;

Hi, Haruka.

So beautiful your pictures. I went to Banff just once to hiking and we didn't have enough time to do some extra activity more than hiking, because it took us 5 hours. I remember how beautiful is the city. I'm anxious to know Banff more than I did.
I'd like you could be here in Calgary a little more. I'm going to miss you when you'll come back to Japan.
