Calgary

Tonight is the first night that I spent some time walking around downtown Calgary. I think that I've spent more time in Vancouver, now that I think about it...

But either way - Calgary has a much more apparent "big city" feel than Edmonton does. Of course, it is a larger city, no doubt about it, but walking around downtown the streets are still empty, not unlike Edmonton...

But then I noticed something. All the cars were driving in THE SAME DIRECTION. Calgary's got the one-way street thing happening, just like Vancouver does in its downtown district. I think that if Edmonton wants to "step it up", it had better think about converting 104th Ave and Jasper Ave to one way streets...

Yeah, that'll do'er. lol. Problems solved!
