Unfortunately, due to the studio being
REALLY busy these days, my cunning plan to cycle from Winnipeg to Banff in time for the Banff International Television Festival has been thwarted. Instead Olaf, myself, and our spouses all crowded into a VW golf, and undertook the 16 hour drive to Banff for the festival.
When we hit Calgary, Olaf and Sherri debated directions, while we endeavoured to hook-up with our newest employee, Kevin Aichele (starting in September!), who is wrapping up a run of Jesus Christ Superstar in the sprawling oil city.
After finding the Aichele, we grabbed lunch... easier said than done in downtown Calgary on Saturday (or the-day-every-single-store-is-closed-day) afternoon. We ended up scavenging out of rubbish bins, while Ange hid under a palm frond to keep an eye out for other marauding bands of other hungry non-Calgarians that might have designs on our hard-won nutrients
We finally said 'Goodbye' (for now) to Kevin, and hurried on to Banff to have dinner at the worlds-longest-sushi-table with the gang from Frantic Films.
The staff at the sushi restaurant evidently had no idea that 30ish people were going to descend upon them that evening, and wanted to throw us out, until I managed to defuse the situation with some clever chop-stick acrobatics.
... more to follow as Andrew Dunn and I show the rest of the television world how golf is REALLY meant to be played...
