How lucky that we timed our vacation to Calgary the same time the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were in town for their first Royal Tour.
We had planned on going to the Stampede Parade but when we heard that Will and Kate would be driving the parade route before it started we were a little more inclined to get there early and try to catch a glimpse.
Grandpa didn't fail and went downtown early and grabbed us some seats (the boys and I actually got curbside) and we waited for the parade (and the Royals).
It was somewhat disappointing because they went by so fast (and there were so many 'black' cars in a procession it was hard to tell which one they were in!) We had hoped they would be more open but regardless we got a peak at Kate in her white cowboy hat waving to the crowd. At a time like this I wished I had a better camera but this was the best shot we could get. If you look closely you can just barely make them out in the backseat of the car!
