CANADA - Roadtrip around Alberta

And as we continue planning for a holiday,

in the very first week of the coming new year,

we'll settle with a roadtrip in a CIRCLE, lovely idea,

a roadtrip conjures excitement of the unknown,

the mysterious, the unfamiliar and unexpected stops, ie.

we never know whn Herbie's gonna need to answer nature call,

(even tho he usually pees in his shell & pour it out the window)

since he is so gungho-ed about being civilised bcos its canada,

i guess we do have to make those stops by the highways,

and let him pee while admiring the wild plains in winter.

We will take off from Calgary, where Scott resides,

in a way, we're revisiting the historic trail, 

of the 18th century when they first build the 

train rail from Calgary to Edmonton

our preps include meals in a cooler box 

& a warm blanket for the 3 hours drive! 

Edmonton (or more fondly known as Eddie)

destination is the INSANELY BIG mall in canada,

West Edmonton Mall 

(some say its the biggest mall IN THE WORLD !!!)

i mean seriously West Edmonton Mall has like

a World Waterpark & ice skating rink

(think Sunway Theme Park + Sunway Mall)

exciting rides in Galaxyland (think Genting!!!)

at least 2 miniature golf playground,

(think Saujana GCC in super small size mode)

Fantasy Themed hotel !!!

(think Berjaya Times Square attach to the mall)

my point is, they even offer manmade beach

with artificial sunlight during the winter!

there's also an artificial sea wrecks + corals and 

prbbly fishes swimming in the giant tank, 

what for you may ask.......

for snorkelling & SCUBA DIVING in the mall whey!!!  

but dont really feel like DIVING here......nor the pic up there,

it looks life threatening..... but i googled,

and i think they dont have that service anymore la...

what would really make u scream,

is prbbly the spitfire dragon at the cinema!!!

imagine getting ur tickets and entering the theatre,

directly underneath while it breathes fire, 

REAL fire every 30mins or so!

in a way, i feel the whole idea seems very malaysian,

hahaha, not that im trying to claim it is,

but it kinda resonance with what we have in KL, right?

except for the dragon la, but mall with all that,

we also have what....anyway.....

My research to be continued....
