Out and about
Okay, so I managed to get out today. I dragged my lazy but off the couch and went downtown, and to the North Saskatchewan river. My estimate is that I walked about 15 km total. I managed to get some pictures from the bridge that the LRT rides on of the river and the high level bridge. It is very scenic down there.
I also made my way over to Churchill Square in downtown Edmonton and from there I took a couple of pictures of the new Alberta Art Gallery that is currently under construction.
West Edmonton Mall
I still have a hard time believing how many people visit this blog. Who would have known. So now that I am living in Edmonton and nowhere near Ft. McMurray I don't know if I should change the name.
But as long as I am here in Edmonton I am checking the city out. This weekend I was at West Edmonton Mall, which is the largest mall in the world. I did take some pictures, but it is hard to capture the size of this place in pictures. It is just something that has to be seen to understand the enormity of it. I am posting the pictures below.
My plan for the day is to go downtown and take some pictures, especially of and from the high level bridge. Which of course goes over the North Saskatchewan river.
