Mom and I went to the West Edmonton mall yesterday. I honestly haven't been to the mall in at least 12 years. After yesterday's visit, I don't think I'll be going again for a long time. This is one of the biggest malls in North America, and it spans several city blocks. It's the only mall I've been in that has a hotel, a water park, an amusement park, a golf course and a skating rink, anyway. We wandered around, and did do a bit of shopping and even bought a few things.
I was appalled by the petting zoo camel, who couldn't even stand up inside its pen. It was completely disgusting. Unfortunately, the mall has a pretty sad record for animal cruelty, as they had dolphins in there for years. People have been protesting their marine parks since they started having animals in there, and nothing has ever been done. It's really pitiful.
After our visit to the giant behemoth of shopping, we went for Thai food and then came home and watched "The Band's visit" which is a really cute movie about an Egyptian band who ends up in the a small town in Israel. It's sweet, funny and very heart warming and I highly recommend it. Today Mom is out on the town, leaving me to catch up on some of the writing that I have to get done for Monday.
