Fall break trip part 2

After we left Drumheller, we drove about an hour and a half to Calgary. We hauled our suitcases inside, ordered some pizza and were in the pool in about 30 minutes flat! The hotel had two water slides which the kids loved. Forget spending tons of money on a vacation...just go to a hotel with a pool and they're good!




Saturday we were going to go to the zoo and some other things around Calgary, but we woke up to a ton of snow and it wasn't looking like it would stop anytime soon. So we decided to come back to the zoo another time and we just went out for a big Perkins breakfast (side note..did you know Perkins offers to go cups? I jokingly told the waitress that only thing that could make that breakfast better was if we could take the coffee to go and she said we could!) We hit the pool again and then went to a movie in the afternoon. We saw Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. It was Ivy's first movie in the theater and I gave her a C.

We didn't leave Calgary without trying out some of the famous burgers and shakes at Peter's Drive Inn. I stayed at the hotel with Ivy, but Chris said it was a classic drive-in and it tasted that way! We will definitely stop again if we're in the area. We hit up the pool one more time that night before heading home the next morning. All in all, a good little getaway!



We even got to bring Chloe and as you can see from the picture below...she did just fine:)
