shopping @ Calgary

skybird

I am going to Calgary for the US-VISA interview this Thursday and will stick around for 4-5 hours. I don't have a vehicle so I need to walk around or take buses.

3 x! G8 b. y, z, ?0 zAre there any of places (malls, clothing stores...) around the downtown recommended to go? Or convenient to go by public transit?

Thanks!
