We’re going to be to in Edmonton for the second half of our family vacation, arriving Tuesday night any ideas of what to do while we’re there would appreciated.

Molson Canadian mixed with Motts Clamato.

That's what's up in Edmonton, last I was there.

There's a mall that's pretty famous. That's all I've got.

West Edmonton Mall or devonian  gardens. Walking in the river valley this time of year could be nice if the smoke has cleared. You could also check out the legislature building.

St. Albert born here. Drink, mall, drink and leave.

Just curious, what phone service actually works in Banff?

I don’t want to go there and find out I have really poor reception...

Sasktel works good in Banff, but probably doesn't help you.

The West Edmonton Mall, the Devonian Gardens, the Muttart Conservatory.

Rent bikes and ride the trails of the river valley. Take a picnic basket to Hawreluk Park (spelling?).

Go see a movie at the Metro cinema downtown, or a concert/symphony at the concert hall next door (the name escapes me) - the sound is incredible .

Rent a Camaro and try not to stuff it up doing high-speed runs late at night on Groat Road.

Whyte Ave (82nd) was always a cool spot from 109th Street and east. It’s near the University so there are tons of restaurants, trendy and funky shops, bars, etc.

I haven’t lived there for 10 years now, and it’s been a number of years since I visited. There are one or two Edmontonians on Oppo, hopefully they’ll see your message.

If you are there for a Saturday I highly recommend the st rathcona market- it’s just north of Whyte ave. Makes for a good Saturday to visit the market and then walk whyte. Used to be a po’boys Cajun place called DaDeOs half way down whyte.. would recommend.

Sasktel works nationwide but you wont find a dealer outside of Saskatchewan.
