My First Big Trip

By Hitomi Nakayama

My trip to Edmonton was very fun. I went there with my friends, Ayu, Manami, and Sam. First, we took the bus ten hours. After we arrived at Edmonton in the morning, we walked around and wasted time because every store was still closed. After that, we took the bus again to go to West Edmonton Mall. We enjoyed shopping until that night. We ate Japanese food there. Before we went to a hotel, we went to Superstore. And then I spent $52 on cosmetics and a lot of food. The second day, we went to the mall and enjoyed swimming. Also the third day, we went there and enjoyed shopping again! It will be my best memories in Canada.

My Good Trip

By Hitomi

I had a very good time with Yuko, Mayu, Kazuna, and Yukari last week. We took the plane and went to Edmonton. We arrived at the hotel Tuesday evening and then we had dinner. After we took a shower, we went to bed.

The next day, after we had breakfast, we went to the West Edmonton Mall. It was very big, so we were excited. We walked there a lot, and we bought many souvenirs. We went to the Galaxy Land, and we rode a roller coaster. I don’t like it, but I rode it for memory. It was very scary, so I regretted riding it. We had dinner at the Old Spaghetti Factory before we came back to the hotel. It was very good, so I like this restaurant. We took a shower as soon as we arrived at the hotel. We went to bed early because we were very tired.

We also went shopping at the West Edmonton Mall on the third day and fourth day. I bought two pieces of clothes for me and souvenirs for my Japanese friends. For four days, I laughed so much with my awesome friends! These are wonderful memories, so I want to go there with them again.

My Trip to Edmonton

By Yuko

Last week was a very good time for me. I went to Edmonton with my awesome friends. We spent time there from Tuesday to Friday and came back here on Saturday morning.

We spent time in the shopping mall almost all of our trip. There were many stores, and they were really attractive for me. We looked around them individually. All of us bought a lot of souvenirs for our Japanese family and friends. The things I bought were too heavy to carry. It was really hard for me.

Actually I also went downtown with Mayu. Our purpose was to purchase something at Louis Vuitton, and I got a wallet! It is a birthday present for me. It was the first time for me to buy such an expensive thing by myself. I had a good experience.

I got many memories there, but I can’t explain how they were good and funny. Anyway, the trip was really awesome! I won’t forget it.

A Trip to West Edmonton Mall

By Gayane

A few weeks ago I was in Edmonton with my husband and two kids. The weather was so nice and we decided to drive. It’s about a seven-hour drive from Fort St. John to Edmonton.

The first day, we went to West Edmonton Mall and spent maybe about 6 hours in Galaxyland, the largest indoor amusement park in the world. There are so many rides and attractions that my kids were excited. They like it very much. They played and rode all day and didn’t want to go from there.


The next day we went to West Edmonton Mall’s Waterpark. We were surprised with my husband that it was really big. I have never seen a waterpark like that before. I think it’s the largest one. There are different water slides for adults and children.
We had lots of fun there, and I hope we will go there soon.
