West Edmonton Mall

Today I visited the West Edmonton Mall. The place is gigantic. I was completely overwhelmed by the its complexity; I could barely find the movie theater I was looking for. When I did find it, I was blown away by the presentation in the theater lobby as well.

The first thing I saw when I walked in the front door (I think), was a humongous pirate ship. Yes, I said a "pirate ship," as in Yo, Ho, Yo Ho, and what not. Wow. How cool! In the same pool was a theater for sea life exhibitions and a bumper boat ride.

When I rounded the next corner I saw the biggest wave pool I have ever seen. Along side it was a full-fledged water park. All of this was still inside the mall. Yikes... Plus, I still had to walk five minutes to get to the theater I was looking for.

I did not even get to the side of the mall that housed the amusement park. What a cool place. I will be returning before I come home from Canada.

Check out a few pics:

Here's the sweet pirate ship:

Here's one end of the wave pool:

And, as I was in line to get my movie ticket, I was startled to have this monster make a stink overhead:


What a cool place!
