Today Jake and I ventured further than our neighbourhood. With Tim's iphone traveling around this new city has been a piece of cake.....traveling around without it....not for the faint of heart. We made it to Uncle Dave's for a lunch date with Grandma and Grandpa (they leave tomorrow) and after some creative driving and a few wrong turns we made it back home. The roads of Edmonton have taught me a few things today.
Number One: Not all roads are two way. In fact Edmontonian (is that what you would call a person from Edmonton?) road planners quite like multiple laned one way streets.
Number Two: Google maps is a useful tool; however, it often does not make it clear whether a road is one way or two way (Are you starting to see where our trouble may have started today :-).
Number Three: The roundabout is a challenging roadway construction that Saskatchewan does not prepare you for.
Despite the one way street blip I am super thankful for google maps today. Without it I would be lost....literally.
