Fort Edmonton, Whyte Avenue











Good day everyone! Jon and I had a wonderful Filipino breakfast. We had mini sausages, maple syrup coated bacon, garlic rice and eggs. After, we went to Fort Edmonton with his cousin and her son. Her son was so adorable. He’s 1 year old. Fort Edmonton is Canada’s largest living history museum. They had 4 different periods: the fort, 1885, 1905, and 1920. It was quite large. In 1905, the increasing housing demands lead families to live in tents. Apparently, it was quite warm. We took a wagon tour back to the train station where we started.

We then drove down to Whyte Avenue which is the equivalent of 4th. There were several cute shops and restaurants. We had a teriyaki chicken crepe there too.
Afterwards, we drove to see a large boot and a large bat. Then we drove to visit my grandpa’s gravesite.

We had a delicious Filipino dinner. We had chicken, vermicelli with vegetables, stewed beef and fruit salad. Jon’s relatives all came for dinner including the 1 year old and the 4 year old. They were both very cute. The 1 year old would say “up” or “down” when he would go up or down the stairs. We had such a wonderful time here. Jon’s relatives were very kind and welcoming.

Have a good night everyone!
