x-fest

So Crystal, Bianca, Andrew, Kurtis, Sean and I all went to X-Fest, and it was such a great day. We started by meeting at Bianca’s store (Bianca Amor’s Liquidation Superstore) and grabbed a bite to eat because she had food trucks stationed in her parking lot. I have never seen her store so busy. It had a line up all the way around the other side of the store. Nick and I were going to buy some stuff, but because we go there all the time, we decided to nix the idea and buy what we had wanted next time we go. The food trucks were also busy and the line ups were a little insane. When you get between people and their food, you end up seeing some nasty sides of people. I wish people would lighten up and realize that food trucks are really not fast food. Food trucks are fairly new to Calgary, and I think a lot of people have a misconception of them. You will get great food and it usually is yummy, but it’s not exactly neither cheap nor fast.

Oh well, I was patient and pleasant and it was well worth the wait. Waffles & Chix premiered on Saturday and I will definitely go searching for them again. It was yummy, and who would have thought that waffles and fried chicken would go together?

The weather started to turn on us, so we decided to head downtown and grab a drink or two before heading to Fort Calgary. By the time we got there the weather had cleared up and the evening was just beautiful. We ate more Food Trucks (um….Fry’s  Dolls is soo good) and watched all the different bands come on stage and play. Of course the highlight of the night was Linkin Park! Can you believe that they have never played in Alberta before then?? They have been around so long, and I can’t believe it has taken them this long to get here. Well it was worth the wait.
