I've been in Alberta several times. When I was growing up in BC, it was the province right next door. I sometimes travelled there with my parents.
Then, when I took a trip there when I turned 18 - I could legally buy a drink in Alberta at 18, while I had to wait for 19 in BC. I went at least once for the Calgary Stampede during my while I was in university.
Then, more recently, I've been there for work a number of times:
- July 2002 - more specifically, Lac La Biche and Edmonton
- October 2004 - Edmonton, Jasper, and Hinton.
See also British Delegation 2002 (Canada Page).
In October 2004, my husband and I went to attend a wedding of friends at Lake Louise. Since my husband has quite a bit of family in that neck of the woods we made a bit of a holiday out of it.
Finally, my most recent trip to Alberta was last week - March 22-27, 2009. That was for a workshop in which a number of work colleagues learned and practiced new ideas and tools.
- Pros:It's a friendly province.
- Cons:Popular parts of it have many visitors.
- In a nutshell:It's a scenic, friendly place to go, if you don't mind tourists!
