Breakfast with Charlie and Kathy (daughter of my mom’s older sister Olga):
Uncle Justin “torturing” Sophia:
The house we stayed in was a 15-minute walk from the football stadium. How the nearby roads are blocked:
Mosaic Stadium, home of the Saskatchewan Roughriders:
You enter at mid-level, the playing field is down in a bowl.
Saskatchewan Roughriders v Calgary Stampeders.
A stadium favorite: poutine. French fries, topped with gravy and cheese curds.
Halftime show: a hoop dancer.
It was a great game. Lots of back and forth, quite exciting in the final two minutes.
We went ahead in the score, sadly followed by a Calgary win in the last few seconds. There are only 3 downs to achieve 10 yards and the field is 110 yards. It really made the game entertaining. I am now a fan.
