Edmonton

 We started out this morning with Max and Deanna and went for a walk on the trails in Edmonton.
 Saskatchewan River that runs all around Edmonton
 We saw a hot air balloon on our walk.  It was a beautiful morning in Edmonton.  The weather was perfect.
 A 'selfie' of us on our walk.
 Henrietta Louise Edwards Park
 Skyline view of Edmonton.
 Japanese Garden
 These are the stairs we climbed up at the end of our walk.
 This hotel is close Max and Deanna's apartment.  It is the hotel that Queen Elizabeth stays in when she comes to Edmonton.
 
 Max and Deanna's apartment building.  They are being very hospitable and letting us stay with them.  We appreciate them very much.
 We did a session at the Edmonton Alberta Temple.  It was so nice.  The people around here are just so friendly and helpful.
 The grounds around the temple.
 We ate lunch at Soda and Jerks.  There are more than 20 items that you can add to your hamburger. The prices were listed so cute on the menu.  13 3/4  ($13.75)
 Next we went to the Ledge.  The legislature building in Edmonton.  It would be like out capital in Boise.
 It was built over 130 years ago.
 You can go down under the building  through a long tunnel.  The tunnel also goes under the highway.
 The grounds outside the Ledge.
 The Centennial Flame.
We went to a dinner theater that night.  The dinner was great and the entertainment was great also.   The musicians were all so talented.  Each of them could play several different instruments and all of them could sing so good.  It was a great night.  Max and Deanna are taking such good care of us and showing us so many neat things.  We are having a great time in Edmonton.
