Canadian Style Holidays

After visiting the Whitehorse visitor centre, we stopped at the real Canadian Superstore for some mushrooms, a green pepper and a block (8 oz) of cheddar cheese which I could not find! They had a thin sliced (24 slices) pack of cheddar but it was white, a lite mild cheddar brick, and extra old cheese which is white not yellow.

Then we went to KFC to get dinner. What a difference! The two or three piece dinner comes with fried (limp & with the skin on) and a salad choice. They only have traditional, no crispy, or rotisserie. I picked the slaw. Boy! They don't know what slaw is. Theirs is diced, all uniformly lime green with two little bitty pieces of ham thrown in. We then saw the WalMart which had a 'grocery shelf' and was closing just as I went in. Seems with the holiday tomorrow, all the stores were closing at 6 p.m. instead of their normal time of 10.
