Calgary trip suggestions

popcola said:

I'm going to Calgary for 4 days/3 nights with the SO. Spending one of those days in Banff.
I need some suggestions of what to do, where to go in Calgary. Can anyone suggest must-do/go/see places? Suggestions of bars, lounges, clubs, restaurants, tourist spots, views, activities, shops in Calgary are greatly appreciated!
Again, going with the SO so only wholesome activities and no pooning at all

Take a trip up the gondola.

This time of year, Banff can get pretty slow, and Jasper picks up. Banff is more of a summer town. Mostly camping and hot springs.

What about the activities at Olympic Park (bobsled etc.). When do they open up CJ?

Pooning ain't wholesome?

I opened this thread in hopes of finding more fun things to do in Calgary, but instead will thow in my two bits.

Personally, I love the zoo. Especailly the tropical garden section on a cold day. It's gorgeous, humid, and reminds me of vacation destinations.

Jubilations http://www.jubilations.ca/jubilations/cal_whatis.html is fun for an evening out. It's original three act musical comedy (usually parodies of TV shows) combined with a four course dinner. The foods not bad...but the show can be hystarical.
