Today is Sunday and we find ourselves in Edmonton, AB, CA  We had a long day of driving and the roads were not as good as we had hoped.  A lot of them had 4 lanes but were very bumpy so it was a little slower than we had hoped.  We did drive through some pretty country.  Lots of fields, cattle, etc.  We are staying at a campground outside of Edmonton and it is wall-to-wall campers, trailers, etc.  We do have internet, TV and all services so it is not too bad.  The largest mall in the world is supposed to be in Edmonton (West Edmonton Mall).  Our plan for tomorrow is to go check it out.  We are set to stay here for 2 nights and will then decide where to go for here.  We were planning on going through Winnipeg but are now thinking we will go south sooner and go through Regina instead.  Nice to have some flexibility.

Yes, I did forget to mention the cinnamon rolls.  We did find the place and the roll was very good - didn't have white frosting on it but it was very good.  Not nearly as good as what we get at the Yarnell Bakery - they may have to change their sign!  Also, while we are on food we did have sourdough bread pudding in Whitehorse, YK that was great.  The Ranch House has great bread pudding and the Whitehorse version was very close to theirs (of course we only had to drive a few thousand miles to get there).

Not many pictures from today but I will post one or two.
Really big beaver along the side of the road

Our view for most of the day
