My spine hurts...
2 days of skiing down and the only thing that hurts is my spine. Good thing it's not that important...
picked bonnie up from the airport in calgary late last night with her dad and then she and I drove back into Banff. It's good to see her again. We walked around a bit this morning and then went to lunch at the sushi train!
Ok, it's not called "the sushi train", it's called something far lamer. It's 100% cool though. YOu sit around the sushi chef and a train goes around with a bunch of flatbed cars behind it. The chef puts whatever he wants on the train and then when it goes by you, you pick it up and eat it. At the end of the day, the look at what plates you have to decide your price (the prices are based on the color of plate used). Man is it ever cool!!!
Unfortunately, the Calgary health region is shutting it down after 20-some years because they don't like that the chefs can't tell to-the-minute how long the sushi has been on the train. Apparently it's irrelevant that it's fairly obvious when it's no longer worth eating, and that rarely happens anyway because the place is always so busy. Bah...hopefully they think of something. THe place is a really cool, local's hole-in-the-wall.
Speaking of locals, I'm being fairly regularly recognized as one which means that at almost every place around here, i win discounts that take the prices down to almost normal price! Wootness. They are very kind to locals around here.
Back to trying to convince Bonnie to go skiing tomorrow...
