Edmonton, Alberta June 20-21 2011

In Edmonton it seemed the same as Regina. The same food, weather and city, but the only big difference was Edmonton owns an amazing mall. It has its own hotel, water park and roller coaster. My family spent one day in the water park and one day shopping. We went on all the water slides and stayed there for 9 hours. My favourite water slide was the far right one that looks like it goes on for ever and it does. There is also a huge wave pool that's really deep, the only difference from the ocean is that it's not salt water.


After we went shopping and found great sales. Unfortunately, we didn't buy a lot of things because we did not want to carry everything around.   The experience of shopping in North America's largest mall was unforgettable. We had to leave the mall early to watch the Edmonton game against Montreal (Edmonton won 3-1). Edmonton was down by 1 in the third period and came back to win by 2 goals. Now I'm packed up and ready to go to Vancouver.
