A Long Time Coming...

Wow!!! This post has been a long time coming. When we left Alaska, the end of May, my intentions were to record our travels on a day by day basis and to post them in the same manner. That was until.... I saw how many pictures we had actually taken. So, I changed the plan a little and decided to post a few pictures of this and that, a few of a couple of special places we stopped along the way and a few of my favorite views! I hope you enjoy all that you see and are able to get into our 13 DAY journey with us!

This picture blew my mind when I first saw it.  Then I realized where we were and that it was actually kilometers and not miles per hour!

This turned out to be one of our luxury stops. We decided to stay in Edmonton over night, went to look for a place to eat and discovered the West Edmonton Mall. Needless to say we added an extra day to our trip and most of it was spent at the mall. West Edmonton Mall is in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It is the largest mall in North America and the fifth largest in the world. It has OVER 800 stores and services. A few being several theme parks, a couple of amusement parks and over 100 eateries!!! We spent in the upwards of 8'ish hours there and did not complete a tour of the entire mall! Granted most of our time was spent at Galaxy Land, Water World, touring the Santa Maria and watching the sea lion show! It was a great time and a well deserved break from the RV.

This turned out to be a great stop also. We all enjoyed the museum and being able to see how everything was preserved in time. It was a great history lesson for the kids, and for us as well, to see how things (technology) has changed from the early 1900's to now. Sage and Allison both made a comment about not wanting to go to "that" doctors office! I cannot say I blame them.

Thanks for sharing in our travels from Alaska to Texas!!
