Last night we stayed at the Elemont Edmonton West. We stayed here on the way to Alaska last August and liked it. The rooms are large and attractive, however it is the breakfast that set it apart. Breakfast had all the usual cold items; different breads, cereals and yogurt. Hot items included sausage, fried potatoes and individually made omelets! We could have cheese, tomato, onion and pepper in our omelets. The chef had three omelet pans going at the same time!
Today was a pretty day for a drive. The topography has changed from mountainous to high prairie. We saw lots of cut hay fields, both square and round hay bales, and lots of cows. The small communities we passed through were spaced far apart. It was a pretty drive, just not the type of scenery I prefer.

The Fairfield Inn in Regina has an attached restaurant. We ordered dinner to go, salads and chicken tenders and an adult beverage. Celebrity Jeopardy was on the TV. We were excited when we heard Ken Jennings announce the categories. One category was Alaska! BB and I were ready. Alaska trivia we learned for the May Cruise is still with us. We knew all the answers in the Alaska category.
Grey remains out of sorts with BB. He is relaxing on my bed.
