My Family's Visit
When we got there we just relaxed for a bit. The first thing we went to was the Kramer IMAX Theater. We watched almost every movie they were showing. Then since we didn't go to the museum in Montreal we went to the art museum after and the Royal Saskatchewan museum. The next day we took a drive to Grassland's national park and just spent the day there. I got a bunch of pictures we ate lunch there and just hiked around.
