Driving took a large portion of the trip, luckily it was the part I enjoyed a lot. During driving, people can witness the change of the location, view and the weather, I feel a little amazed in the process.
自驾游的每天都要开很多车,开车其实也是我在旅途中最享受的经历,见证地点的变化,景色变化还有天气的变化,许多时候感觉事件很神奇的事情。

There are a lot of windmills on the road, looks like the region have a strong wind.
一路上有很多风力发电风车,看来这里的风力很大。

I came to Calgary several times before, my favorite part of the city is the downtown that is close to the bow river and China town.
我去过卡尔加里很多次,最喜欢的地方就是他的靠近弓河和中国城的市中心。

Here, China town is not the a little messy place that on the edge of the city, with only small restaurant and Chinese stores. There is a lot of associations and places to introduce our Chinese culture.
在这里,中国城不再是城市边上有些脏乱,充斥着小饭馆和小商店的地方;而是有许多的协会组织,还有介绍中华文化的地方。

At last, there is a park that donated by Chinese immigrants as well, the location and view of the park is very good and a lot of people come here exercises and relax. The city was build by immigrants as well as local people, hopefully all of them can be remembered.
最后是另一个华人捐赠的公园,地址风景都特别好,很多人在这里跑步,锻炼,放松。建设这个城市的不仅仅是本地人,本国人,有许多许多移民,背井离乡,为城市发展做出了很多贡献,希望城市可以记住他们。

I live in Calgary and travel south quite a bit. I really enjoyed seeing our province and home through the eyes of a visitor from China. We all thank-you for your kind words and are glad your enjoyed your visit. Thank-you for sharing your wonderful photos as well.

It is very windy in the south and as you saw we have many windmills for power generation. Alberta has a large investment in wind power now and for the future.

Thank you for your support and glad to know that the Alberta has a large investment on the "clean energy", it looks like the oilsand can not support Alberta forever. I come to Canada six years ago, finished my degree in Edmonton and now working in the same city. Been to Calgary several times and love it very much. Hopefully I can have a chance to work in Calgary in the future.

Yes, the end of petroleum for fuel is definitely in the cards, but still much needed for plastics and other non-fuel purposes. It will still be a challenge for all of us, but new opportunities too.

I grew up in Edmonton, but left in 1990. I lived in Banff for five years working in IT and moved to Calgary in 1996.

IT is a very hot and promsing major to work in. To damage the oil and gas industry in Alberta, people do not need to not use oil at all, 1% less demonding or crude oil below 40 usd again, would damage Alberta hard enough again. You should saw a lot of what happened in these three years here. I am working in this industry and really worried when think deeply. lol.

我对你的旅行印象深刻,图片非常有趣。 谢谢你的分享

感谢支持。希望以后可以写出更好的游记。

Canada has a lot of good views, I've been to Toronto once, it is more attractive in the east than the west, lol.
