Summary

Shaun and I got the incredible opportunity to visit a "bucket list" locale "for my birthday" (I really did have a birthday while there, but it was mostly just a fun excuse to take a trip during a gorgeous time of year).

It was one of the most enjoyable and relaxing trips that I can remember in recent years, and the scenery was beyond beautiful. (Special thanks to my nice parents for staying with our kids and keeping everything running smoothly at home.)

I had so many requests for a trip recap + itinery + places we ate that I decided to ask Shaun to join me for a chat about all things Banff (or at least all things Banff that we experienced), and he said yes!

We hope you enjoy and get some inspiration for trips of your own (whether to Banff or not).

Restaurants mentioned:

Jerusalem Shawarma

Farm and Fire

Brazen

Sky Bistro

Bare Bistro
