Mall Of The Solar System

Spent another night in Edmonton, and this time had enough time to get out and explore further than the shower. In addition to discovering that Edmonton is miserably cold, I discovered that there is a mall there, known properly as the West Edmonton Mall, and that it covers 48 city blocks, making it the largest mall in the world.
DAYOM this this place is huge. To begin with, the hotel shuttle dropped us of at door 45. We didn't get that far into the mall, but on our way to the food court, we saw a wave pool the size of the Indian Ocean. We also saw a lake, in which there was a full-size pirate ship, and a submarine. I'm not talking about a rusty old model submarine that sits halfway in the water... I mean a baby ex-Russian sub that actually takes seven people on an underwater tour. There's also a trained seal show there.
When we finally got to the food court, it was called Bourbon Street, and was about as big as its namesake. There were several full-fledged restaurants in there, to include a Hooters, which is where we went.
We heard legends of things like ice skating rinks and rollercoaster parks in this mall. It might take several months to see all of that place. I'll have to go back when I have several months.
