Wooo, I had an eventful weekend. On Saturday I went to Drumheller, a small town about 150km from Calgary with Talisman's Malaysian expatriate Poh Kwong Wee and international assignee Calvin Chua. Poh was kind enough to rent a car and took us on the trip. Though it rained all day and was freezing cold at 0 degrees Celcius, we had fun.
At Drumheller, we went to the Tyrell Dinosaur Museum. It seems Drumheller or better known as the "Badlands", have been a graveyard for dinosaurs. Many fossils were unearthed, and still are, here. Pictures on my visit will come in future blogs.
Today, Lynne Lepansee, a consultant with Talisman which came to Malaysia, and her husband Mike took me to the mountains in Banff. Banff is about 200km away from Calgary. Since the weather was beautiful with no rain and snow, we went on a 4-hour return hike up one of the mountains to Lake Agnes. Lake Agnes was gorgeous and the view from up there was picturesque - postcard perfect.
After the hike, we went to the Banff town and then to Mike's father's cousin, Phil and her lovely wife Jean, nice and quaint house for supper. They were wonderful host. More pictures on that too.
I'm going to sleep now - too tired for more blogging.
