Science Centre
While we were in Edmonton we didn't go to any restaurants or see any movies but we had a great time with our family! On our first full day we went to the Science Centre. It was fun! There was an exhibit on the movie Robots and an exhibit with a house and you went in and had to look for clues to solve the crime (that one was my favourite) it was really cool.
I give the Science Centre ***1/2 out of 5 stars!
Fort Edmonton
On our second full day in Edmonton we went to Fort Edmonton. It was lots of fun! If you don't know what it is it's this town with different streets from different years a long time ago. There is a train that takes you from the entrance to the fort (Fort Edmonton). There's also a street car that drives around the town. We went on that, it was really cool! There lots of cool places, there's a cafe, a drugstore, a lounge, a little school/church, a few houses, a theater and a lot of other things!!!
Across from the entrance there's midway a with a fast Ferris wheel, a merry go round, some mini rides and some games! We went on the Ferris wheel and it was really fun!!!
We had our picnic lunch at some tables behind the buildings. There were chickens walking around all the tables, they were really annoying!!!

West Edmonton Mall Waterpark!!!
On our way back through, we went to West Edmonton Mall!!! More specifically we went to the waterpark for about 5 1/2 hours and then shopped for about 2 hours!!! Then we met Moms brother and his family for supper at the Old Spaghetti Factory! The waterpark was awesome!!! One of the first slides I went on was a shorter steep slide. You rode down it on a toboggan thingy! It was so much fun but it hurt your butt at the bottom!!! There were 4 levels for the slides, beginner, intermediate, advanced, extreme. I went on 1 of the extreme slides 4 times, it was so much fun!!! It was called Nessie's revenge. It was purple and bumpy!!!
The wave pool is also really fun! We saw 4 or 5 bungee jumpers (none of them from our family)!!!
