Brandon in Banff.

The first stop of our road trip in Calgary was Banff. It started with me picking up the rental car. An ongoing joke between Cam and I is that she always rents the smallest car they have in their fleet and I always want to upgrade to something a little larger and/or more exotic. Unfortunately when I arrived at Budget Car Rental they had no small cars left so I was 'forced' to upgrade. Budget was also generous enough to give us a discount for the inconvenience. When I went back to pick up Cammie and Brandon I told her I got an upgrade and a discount......she didn't believe me until she went out into the driveway and saw this Bad Boy parked there!!

Talk about EXOTIC, this V8 - 16 seater bus was fully decked out with plush 'pleather' seating, a bitchin' stereo system and last but not least a fire extinguisher in case Brandon got rowdy in the back. It was just what the doctor ordered for Brandon, Cammie and I to enjoy our road trip in the luxury we deserve!

We were also lucky enough to be staying at the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel which is without a doubt one of the most amazing hotels I have ever been to. It's a huge and amazingly preserved castle. Which over looks a huge valley in Banff. Unfortunately because of the size of the castle the photos cannot do it justice.

Brandon had a great time in the hotel pool. He was flying around like Superman and showing off to all the other guest.

The views from the hotel were pretty spectacular...again we cannot do it justice with the photos.

Breakfast at one of the restaurants.
