Well, Canmore actually as we are not allowed to live in Banff due to parks canada restrictions allowing only people employed in the park to live in the park.
We've agreed a contract on a 2 bed apartment on the outskirts of Canmore, comfortable and spacious and located so Maria can walk into the downtown and to the supermarkets as well as along the bow valley trail. It's about 11km from banff but the ski hills are actually out of town anyway, so wherever we stay it means travelling to the slopes.
And having agreed to be here from November 1st, we've found and booked a day trip from Calgary to Churchill for Nov 5th to go out on a tundra buggy to see polar bears as they congregate waiting for Hudson Bay to freeze over - its supposed to be one of the best places on earth to see the bears in the wild. Maria wanted to take me for my 50th but we changed our itinerary years around so we could meet the reynolds out west last summer so just pushed it back by a year. But it's all worked out in the end :-)
