River City Roundup

Saturday, November 2, we made our way downtown to Churchill Square to take part in the River City Roundup activities. It is a festival celebrating Edmonton's agricultural and western heritage, and Saturday was their big kick-off.

Elijah went on a pony ride and tried out the mechanical bull, we went on a horse-drawn cart ride, ate bacon coated in fresh cinnamon, took part in some old penny arcade games, watched a blacksmith do some branding on wood, listened to live music, and ran into some friends. We only stayed for about an hour and a half because we got there pretty late. We had a very late night the previous night, and everyone enjoyed a big sleep-in, and then Cris made waffles and pancakes before we left.

It was neat to go, if only for a short while.
