When West Edmonton Malls final phase was completed it was the biggest mall in the world located in Edmonton Alberta Canada. It offered everything from hotels, movie theatres, a water park, an amusement park. It offers over 800 stores, restaurants and attractions. Here are a few pictures to give you an idea of what our mall looks like. The amusement park.        The Water Park.    A full sized reproduction of the Santa Maria.    The Seal Lions Den. They have shows but at the time we were there they weren't performing.  The skating rink was being watered at the time we were there.   There is no shortage of places to eat.  Mini golf.  The entrance to the movie theatre.  And the best place of all, Gemoro Goldsmiths. They don't allow photography so this was more of a drive by shooting, these guys carry the best of the best. I had to limit the pictures as I was drawing some attention from inside the store. Sorry for the quality of the pics.

It's been a while since I looked at the Zenith watches. I actually used to go in this store on a regular basis but since they are on salary plus I don't do that anymore. I hate getting their hopes up when I know I'm not going to be dropping that much coin on a watch.

Ya, the view of the watches gets worse when you get inside. I can tell you that if I had unlimited funds I'd be doing a whole pile of shopping in that store. I just wish I could take shots inside. As it was I was getting lots of looks from the sales people in the store.

Yup, pretty though looking in the windows and seeing all of that eye candy and not being able to do anything about it.

Awesome pictures. Is that mall lager then the Mall of America in Minnesota? EDIT - I found my answer - Mall of America (also MOA, MoA, the Megamall) is a super-regional shopping mall located in the Twin Cities suburb of Bloomington, Minnesota, USA. The mall is located southeast of the junction of Interstate 494 and Minnesota State Highway 77, north of the Minnesota River and is across the interstate from the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. It is the second largest mall in North America, after the West Edmonton Mall, in Edmonton, Canada. In the United States, it is the largest mall in terms of retail space but is second largest in terms of total enclosed floor area
