Edmonton

I went to Edmonton, Alberta this past week for my cousin's wedding. Here's what I learned:

1. An AM flight is not exciting and can throw your whole schedual into whack
2. Flying to Edmonton is a waste of time and experience
3. Edmonton is flat
4. The Edmonton Boom is silent
5. Canola is yellow
6. It's quiet.... unnervingly quiet... the kind of quiet you hear before a masked man jumps out from behind a tree weilding a chainsaw
7. Other bird species besides crows and seagulls exist
8. When there's nothing to do, go to the mall, come home and watch a movie
9. Only 4 chains exist in Edmonton: Tim Hortons, Boston Pizza, MacDonalds, and Sobeyes
10. To say West Ed is overrated is an understatement
11. The drive to Calgary is "cows and canola"
12. The public trash can is a thing to be seen not used
13. There is no place like Vancouver, B.C.- it is perfect in all its faults
