Altitude: Please be aware that Banff’s elevation is approximately 1,384 metres (4,540 feet) … you may experience fatigue, shortness of breath and/or dizziness.

It has nothing to do with being out of shape. See how awesome this place is.

Other wonderful things include the recycling bins in my room, the SmartSaver lightbulbs, and the guy in the box outside my window playing violin.

Check out the music hut. I’d guess it is 6-8 foot cube.

I’m a bit distracted by all the cool things and I should be working on an outstanding proposal. Outstanding in that it is incomplete rather than exceedingly brilliant.
