shopping @ Calgary

* I: i5 i5 s) `( r; @9 b1 S8 rchinook还可以，坐c-train（lrt）到chinook那站再走个5分钟的样子，除了crossiron最大的mall就是chinook了
sunridge也可以，坐个lrt下来就是
本人更喜欢chinook，店更多，人气更旺，sunridge那边基本是印巴友人的地盘

Take the c-train and get off 8 ave, 5 st. SE. (start from #10 Eatons  in the map shop along the 8 Ave(Stephen Ave)

A lot of shopping malls, including Bankers hall, see map
