Fun in your own backyard

One Sunday afternoon we ended up at West Edmonton Mall and the boys noticed there was this pirate ship inside the mall?! Could they go on it? Sean and I weren’t sure, we’ve lived in Edmonton our whole life but had never gone on the boat. hummm….walking over to the ship we noticed guest services was set up right next to it, so we asked. For only a $1 you can board the ship and spend as much time as you would like.

Owen and Brandon LOVED the pirate ship. As we were leaving the guest services person told us we could come back with pirate swords and let the boys play on the ship.

Walking a little further down the mall they noticed these boats in the water, could they go in those boats? hummm…again Sean and I weren’t sure…walking over to the boats we noticed a little window with a person, so we asked. For a few dollars we could ride the bumper boats. We asked Owen and Brandon — who should ride the boats with you? Of course Aunty would ride with Owen, Brandon wanted Grandma so much but settled for Mommy.

Who knew the mall could be more than just shopping? Bring your children, they’ll get you to stop and see the details.
