I was busy last weekend for the Stampede



I went to visit Stampede and it was my first and last time in Calgary. So, I want to know a lot of information about Stampede and I chose to visit the Stampede parade in the morning on Friday and to watch the Stampede Grandstand Show in the evening on Saturday. That's why I didn't go Banff and Jasper from the school's activities.

On Friday I woke up so early about 5:50 A.M. because I had to meet my classmate and leader at 7:00 A.M. and you know the bus is not on time any time. If you miss it, you have to wait about 20 or 30 min. However, I saw the Stampede Parade that was very interesting and I sat on the road that was perfect to see the parade. Then, Rita and I ate stampede barbecue which don't pay any money and you can eat and listen to music. As well, it was near downtown.
On Saturday my host family and I played all day from 11:00 A.M. to 12:30 P.M. That was so crazy and also that is worth to do it because we had a lot of fun. we played around the grounds all afternoon then we saw the show in the evening. The show nobody stopped to yell because every shows was so exciting and cheering. It is the best and biggest show I've seen.
Do you have fun about Stampede and Can you tell me about it?
