After a lazy five hour drive from home in Spruce Grove to Canmore, a prebooked massage at Wildflower Massage and Esthetics was nothing short of brilliant. It set the tone for the weekend. Julie and the girls set things right.
Soon after we were checked in at the Worldmark by Wyndemm in the sheltered embrace of the Three Sisters of the Rockies. Soon after we were settled we were in the hot tub.
Supper was to be expected - excellent. The service was quick. The only problem was with my eyes. I ordered wild game meatloaf but it came with smashed sweet potatoes, which I don't like, so I ordered what I thought was beef risotto that turned out to be bright red. Yes, beet risotto . I tried it anyway and it wasn't that bad.
After another trip to the hot tub to finish off the day, it was an early night.
The next morning was a late start. Strolling around town works up the appetite so we tried a new to us restraunt serving Mexican food. I had a beef burrito 3x the size I would normally have. It was awesome.
Then we checked out the victory second hand store for fun.
The test of the afternoon was spent wandering around the Nordic Center grounds. We should have brought our bikes. Nice place.
For supper we went to our usual spot, Woods. They have the best braised bison short ribs. I ate too much again.
Another early night.
Did another hot tub in the morning then checked out. We went to the very busy family restaurant for a wonderful breakfast. That's why it was so busy, the food and service was that good.
Then it was a slow uneventful ride home Just a beautiful day for a drive.
