 SO excited about In{k}spire Me #280's final Christmas challenge - my favorite place for Christmas! And thinking of that place, TGIF #86's Let It Snow inspiration will go perfectly! So, if I can't be home all toasty and snuggly with the dogs and DH, sipping adult beverages and relaxing during a Downton Abbey marathon, take me to the Fairmont Banff Springs, and plunk me down in the Rundle for a long lazy afternoon tea (hopefully with Eggnog Martinis for dessert, lol) where the view out the window pretty much looks almost exactly like this. I don't know why one of my fave activities is to fly and then drive all the way to Banff so I can snooze in front of 4 or 5 different amazing fireplaces with my fully loaded kindle, attended by a helpful snow lodge cabana boy, but hey, there it is. Yes. Once you're inside, there's really no reason to leave unless you really want to - 7 or 8 restaurants, kitchens to tour, spa, gym, hot chocolate (with fresh whipped cream) at every door, and of course, everyone knows, Santa stops here first on his way south, lol. Oh, OK, yes, I go outside to soak in the Hot Springs pool at night, when all the wild animals come and take naps around the edges to keep warm. Eden in Winter, baby.

What a great scene on your card, but your description of the place is 100x better! Sounds quite inviting! Thank for sharing your favorite place for Christmas! The Fairmont Banff Springs sounds wonderful and your card is just perfect. Really need to go to Canada someday. Maybe if I earn the Incentive Trip to Alaska I can extend my stay? Merry Christmas and thank you for playing along at Inkspire me. Leave a Reply. |
