Andrea goes to the Brier!

This past weekend I rented a car and drove down to Calgary to take in THE curling event of the season - the Brier. I don't quite know how to describe it but I'm hoping the pictures can. Grown men throwing 44 lb. (20 kg) chunks of granite down a pebbled sheet of ice is like watching the coolest game of chess around (literally). I enjoyed the weekend with my friend and former Starbucks co-worker Courtney (also in the pictures). You go for the curling and the strategy but stay for the party! I hope you enjoy the pictures.
