Planning for the Festivities!

We had originally planned to have four of our closest friend visit us for christmas and new year but unfortunately due to medical and financial reasons those plans had to be cancelled and Nige and I were set to spend christmas, just the three of us. But as Sonja and Alan, friend whom we have met since arriving in Canada were also due for a quiet christmas we decided to get together for Christmas dinner and things are looking a lot more exciting!

As well as our Christmas celebrations we have finalised our plans for new year. Although the temperatures are extremely cold the downtown core of the city comes alive with ice skating, fireworks and entertainment so aswell as getting together for Christmas the four of us have booked a meal in the revolving restaurant at the top of the Calgary Tower. This means that not only will we have a fantastic view of the city whilst we are eating, if the weather takes a turn for the worst we will be able to celebrate in the warmth with unrestricted views of the festivities!
