Back to Alberta

We hit the road this morning fairly early and headed west. We drove a different route on the way back which took us through Prince Albert rather than Saskatoon. The rolling rolls and valleys were really pretty. Many people think of flat boring scenery when they think of Saskatchewan. But those people have to get off the Trans Canada and travel north of the boring part. They would be surprised at how beautiful the scenery really is.

We stopped in Vegreville, AB to take a look at the World's largest Easter Egg

 

 

This is located in the Elk's Park

Then a stop in Mundare, AB to take a look at the World's largest Kobassa

This buffalo as relocated from Calgary. It is hand painted by native artists.

Tom had to take a picture of me in what he thought looked like a huge colon!!

We arrived in Edmonton without incident. Had dinner at the White Spot in Leduc. Great food and reasonable prices. I highly recommend it if you find yourself in the area. We dropped off the rental at the airport and got ready for a long night. Our flight leaves at 6:00 am tomorrow. Makes no sense to get a hotel room for just a few hours so we are going to spend the night at the airport.
We got checked in and found the observation deck where we can relax, read or cat nap.
Until next time - safe travels.
