Jasper to Edmonton

 Downtown Jasper.  Large rock that came down from the Glacier.
 On our walk this morning we were able to see the "Rocky Mountaineer" pull out of the train station.
 We walked along the Wapiti Trail.  It is beautiful in Jasper.
 When we were heading out of  Jasper on Route # 16 we finally saw some wild life.  I think they are goats.
 Leaving the Jasper National Park.  The parks in Canada are extremely beautiful.  WOW!!!!!
 Our first stop in Edmonton was the LDS-YSA Institute of Religion.  Max and Deanna met us there.  It was so good to see them.
 We ate at the Cheese Factory.  You could watch them making the cheese while you ate.  We had a Canadian favorite there, Poutine.  It is french fries, and cheese covered in gravy.  It was really good.
 This is a picture of the Ronald McDonald House where Max and Deanna service one day a week.
 Canadian Geese in the park
 A few views of down town Edmonton.  They have lots of bridges.
 We went to the Edmonton Mall.  It is amazing with a swim park; ice skating rink; seal show and aquarium; miniature golf; full size replica of the Santa Maria; large play ground; restaurants; food court; and any store you can imagine.  What a Mall.
 At the mall there was an African Experience that we went through also.
One of the bridges in Edmonton lights up.  It was green tonight, but other times it is colors in motion.  What a sight.
