shopping @ Calgary

skybird

I am going to Calgary for the US-VISA interview this Thursday and will stick around for 4-5 hours. I don't have a vehicle so I need to walk around or take buses.

chinook还可以，坐c-train（lrt）到chinook那站再走个5分钟的样子，除了crossiron最大的mall就是chinook了
+ z# o+ w5 s& o+ B4 d$ d5 T3 ~+ bsunridge也可以，坐个lrt下来就是
本人更喜欢chinook，店更多，人气更旺，sunridge那边基本是印巴友人的地盘

By the way, c-train is free within the downtown area!

( B* B% N' O2 H6 hTake the c-train and get off 8 ave, 5 st. SE. (start from #10 Eatons  in the map shop along the 8 Ave(Stephen Ave)
