Drumheller, Alberta is a town located in the middle of the Canadian Badlands, which is a fascinating and unique landscape. (I'll be revisiting this area again on my blog.) It also happens to be the place where they've found huge deposits of fossils - big ass (and little ass) dinosaur bones.
To celebrate these amazing finds, the town has created a special world of its own...

| Isn't he cute? |

| Do you see the cars in the picture? This guy is HUGE! (You can walk up inside of him and view the world from his mouth.) |

| And then there is this mural... Do you think Bob Barker knows he's immortalized on a wall in Drumheller, Alberta? |
Does your hometown have something fun or wacky to amuse tourists?

What a cool place! I can't get over the size of the dinoasaur in the middle photo (btw, I've loved dionosaurs since I was a kid). I would definitely like Drumheller!
I live in London ont and been to Alberta. Our amusement, as in toronto is the mayor... we used to have a zoo, still have historical homes and lots of trees...
It is fun in Drumheller and that area. When we go, I always hope to stumble over a big dinosaur discovery! :)
LOL - you are right, your mayor is a little entertaining. ;) I went to University in Ontario and loved it - especially the trees and shrubs that we can't grow in Alberta. It is so beautiful.
