Exercise 2, page 62.0:01
Hey Kelly, I didn't know you were back from Canada.0:04
How was your trip?0:07
I came back last week.0:09
The trip was fantastic, Gordon.0:10
I wish I could have stayed longer.0:12
That good was it?0:15
Let me guess, you found a great shopping place, didn't you?0:16
Ha ha ha.0:19
You know what a shopaholic I am.0:20
Of course, you're right.0:22
I knew it.0:24
Tell me about this shopper's paradise you discovered.0:25
Well, when I was in Edmonton, I went to west Edmonton mall.0:28
Edmonton, eh?0:31
I've heard it's an amazing place.0:32
They call it the gateway to the north and to the world famous Rocky mountains, don't they?0:34
That's right.0:38
It's a very cosmopolitan city offering many things to locals and visitors alike.0:40
Their mall though is out of this world.0:45
First of all, it's huge.0:48
It takes up an area of land the size of 48 city blocks.0:50
We're talking big here, Gordon.0:55
Impressive.0:57
But places like that are not my cup of tea.0:58
I feel I could get lost in there and never be heard from again.1:01
Don't be silly.1:04
You'd love it there.1:05
It's not just about shopping.1:07
There are lots of places where you can have fun too.1:09
There's even a 5,000 sq ft skateboard park.1:12
It's called West 49 Skatepark and it attracts both amateur and experienced skateboarders.1:16
Wow.1:22
Now that got my attention.1:23
I knew it.1:25
Would you go to every skateboarding competition in town?1:26
You're as crazy about skateboarding as I am about shopping.1:30
I suppose that's true.1:33
Anyway, what else did you do in Edmonton apart from shopping at the mall of your dreams?1:35
I ate like a horse.1:39
I couldn't get enough of poutine.1:41
It's a famous Canadian dish that has french fries topped with cheese and gravy.1:43
Also, three of Canada's top 100 restaurants are actually in Edmonton and one of them was very close to my hotel.1:49
I went there a couple of times.1:57
It sounds like you had a blast in Edmonton.1:59
Maybe I should think about it as a future holiday destination.2:01
You definitely should.2:04
