The first post in theTraveling Cardi seriesfrom Travelista,Kat Bouchard.

I love to travel. I always have.

Over the years my adventures have changed from wild solo adventures around the world, to shorter more organized trips with a toddler in tow. Don't get me wrong, a toddler won't stop me from traveling, she just

changes the way its done.

Last weekend for my birthday my wonderful hubby decided to spoil me with a weekend family trip to Banff Alberta.

It was perfect, a great drive, a beautiful hike, dinner and a great mountain resort to stay in.

With a toddler in tow, the weekend was noisy, but always full of lots of fun and laughter.

It was my first chance to really try out myChrysalis Cardi,and I must say that I am in love.

My Cardiwas the star of the trip. It was the perfect to wear at dinner, great on a sunny hike, and even served as a little cover up for me and my daughter when the weather started to turn.

This trip was just the first of our family adventures this summer.
