Day two - onto Manitoba!

Today we traversed the remainder of Saskatchewan and half of Manitoba travelling from Indian Head to the campsite just west of Winnipeg. The weather was quite warm and pulling the trailer limits the amount of time we can have the air conditioning on so some toasty time in the car but an uneventful journey. The original plan upon arrival was to quickly nip into Winnipeg, pick up some groceries and then head back and make supper. Unfortunately Winnipeg closes at 6 p.m. on Sundays and that prevented us from hitting a super-market. For Calgarians who are used to super-markets being open late on weekends (and having Walmarts open 24/7) the fact that the only things open were fast food joints and convenience stores was a bit of a shock. The plan is to stay in Winnipeg tomorrow and then head out the day after. We are looking at heading down to the Forks during the day and see what's up.

Today's selection of photos from the 116 taken from the automated camera. First, leaving the campsite at Indian Head:



This was a nice little site to camp at. I'll have to remember it for the future. Some of the endless prairie vista of Saskatchewan:

One of the many cars on the road who's drivers think an Element pulling a trailer can stop on a dime:

A non travel day tomorrow! Just into Winnipeg and see what it has to offer.
