…I see this happening in Edmonton and I will 100% be back to check out the new arena when it opens in 2 years. It will be a part of a major development including arts, retail, restaurant and entertainment that will revitalize and invigorate downtown-at least that’s what they’re hoping for! But I think it will work out for sure. Plus this means the Oilers aren’t moving which I know was a concern for a while until they got a new arena built. Another…

…ms. It’s funny because the most popular places for foreigners to visit are New York, Orlando and Vegas…New York I understand, but Disneyland and Vegas, I mean, common!
