I kind of cheated the system. I joined choir about 3 weekes ago and was allowed to accompany the choir on choir tour. It was really fun.. and really cold. Canada was cool, but very similair to the U.S and even Idaho. The climate felt like it did back in Idaho a few weeks ago. The main differences I saw were :
-Canadian money is cleaner than ours, and you can be carrying around $20 in change without even thinking about it. (that drove me crazy, I hate change.)
-Canada is much more concerned about recycling
-For every McDonald's theres an A & W's to match and -Canadians are much more liberal
Heres some pictures from the trip



They had cactus and sand in the chapel as decoration for lent.
After the church we went to the zoo to kill a couple of hours before our next performance. I wasn't exactly thrilled. I don't really like zoos in the first place and it was so cold! Luckily most of the exhibits were indoors.
I never realized how big hippos were.
that bat was about 3 ft long when he spread his wings.

Yes those are zebras outside in the snow. I'm sure they were wondering why the zoo was even open just as much as I was.
These notebooks in the gift shop were made out of elephant poop. They were really cool looking, but I just couldn't bring myself to buy one. No matter how clean it is, poop is poop.
On Friday we went to a music muesum and Calgary tower. This piano was the one Elton john used to record his first album.
This was one of the cool instruments at the museum. Its called a theremin. I couldn't get the video to go up with the other pictures of the museum.
All in all it was a very exciting spring break.
