I'm originally from Calgary but it's been a few years since I've lived in the city or been there much for that matter. And most of my time there is Costco or going for sushi.

I have some ideas for what we are planning, but I was hoping to have others weigh in and maybe remind me of some stuff.

So far our plans are going for sushi, taking a walk through Kensington, going to the peace bridge, going to see a show at the vertigo, going to the National with some friends, maybe going to check out crossiron mills or something as well as skating at the Olympic Plaza.

As service industry workers at a hotel, we don't have a lot of money to throw around during this time. So any ideas are preferably less expensive or free.

Thanks for any advice! Wish me luck on making this a special 'staycation' sorta thing!
