1 st time on the Gondola in Baniff

a couple weeks ago after an especially long and hard week Evan and I decided to take the kids to Baniff on a Sunday afternoon. When we got there we discovered that it was a lot cooler in Baniff then it was in Calgary, and Evan and I were only in Spring Jackets, we brought the kids winter jackets.
Instead of taking a couple hours to hike some of the path ways we paid the HIGH price to ride the Gondola. I have to say that it was the best money we have spent on our family in a long time.
It takes about 10 minutes to get up to the top of the mountain and then you need to get out. We spent time walking around the store at the top of the mountain and walking outside on the walk way. The outside walk was awesome but we only lasted about 10 minutes before being to cold.



after spending about 1 hour with the Gondola we drove back into Baniff and took the kids to the candy shop. We love the candy shop there, it is filled with candy and only candy.
After our kids had picked some candy we spent about 1 1/2 hrs walking around the main street. Baniff has the best stores, we wouldn't be able to afford things but it is great just to look around.


Update on our school situation: I have yet to chose a kindergarten school for Emmanuel. I still haven't had an opportunity to see the last school in our zone, but I am leaning toward the Catholic school. I am hoping to be able to get to the other school later this week and I will make a more informed decision.

I hope everyone had a great Easter weekend and is enjoying the warmer weather.
