    I am going to Calgary this weekend to watch my son play basketball. I have not been there in over 15 years. Anyone have any tips on where I can check out some Ferraris? Does anyone own an Enzo in Calgary?

    Any info would be greatly appreciated. I am from Winnipeg and all we seem to have around here is one 360 and a Lamborghini Murcielago (internet pharmacist owns that one!).

    If you have the time head down to ZR Auto (www.zrauto.com). Its a Ferrari/Lambo/ every other exotic type place. If its nice when you come, try 17th ave sw. there are always Ferraris down there during hot weather. Have fun, it looks like it will clear up in two or three days. Also, maybe try to head down to Rennsport. They have some older porsche types in there. (www.rennsportcalgary.ca) Just pop in, say hi, if they are busy then come back perhaps. Its really all in timing.

    Thank you very much for the information. One question: I was looking through the Alberta thread and I saw a post that stated ZR Auto was purchasing a Yellow Enzo. Do they have one?

    The Yellow Enzo belongs to the owner of ZR auto...

    All sounds good but I can't leave the city as my son plays at least 4 games in three days. A trip in the city might be possible so that is what I am trying to plan. That plus the fact I have never seen an Enzo in person......

    As for the sunrise at 3 a.m., we are driving straight through from Winnipeg so seeing the sunrise is a distinct possibility....

    I was once in Gimili in 1979, got to see the northern lights in June. Breathtaking!!

    Funny how we take things for granted. We see the Northern Lights all the time so it is not all that special to us. We should realize how lucky we are to see things that people normally do not see.

    Gimli has changed quite a bit since 1979. There is a large hotel on the lake front and 'downtown' is now very commercialized......
