Last weekend Adrian and I climbed a mountain in Banff. I was a bit worried being out of breath after the first five minutes, but it seems that it's only natural for that to happen when you come to such a high altitude. The foot of the mountain was 5200 feet above sea level, and the peak was 7400. In comparison, I'm used to... 0. We made it in 1:29, much faster than expected. But maybe that's just because Adrian promised there would be hookers there.
On top of that (pun!), we hung out with the Kalgary Krew and had some amazing beef. Compared to the beef in Kalgary, all other beef tastes like overcooked hamburger. You'd spit it out, you would! When Adrian first started going on about the beef, I thought he was kidding. Boy was I in for a pleasant surprise. Also, being Chinese as we were, we also opted for some late night Chinese cuisine.
Oh, and the airport workers all wore cowboy hats. Seriously.
We worked hard for this spectacular view.
On top of the mountain, an instant of sunshine, in a distant valley.
Proof that we made it up!
The gang at night.
A freakish Calgarian sunset, at 10 PM!

The calgarian sunset looks a whole lot like Twin Peaks on the Simpsons.
