Today I would play the tourist in Winnipeg on my final day in Manitoba.
This post will tell the story through pictures and text
I bid my gracious hosts adieu and headed out early from Selkirk to make the trip into downtown. I certainly was blessed with glorious sunny days this past week and the day shone blue and bright all day.
First stop a Trolley tour through the City:
Then a tour of the Manitoba Museum – where I discovered that people from the Netherlands also immigrated here.
As the day neared dinner time, I headed back to the rental car agency to return my vehicle. The employee graciously offered to drive me back to the Via Rail Station. I checked my luggage in and made my way to one of the local restaurants for a well deserved and relaxing dinner and wine.
As dusk fell across the city, I walked to the train station and settled in for the short while until our train would arrive. Little did I know that I would not be boarding until early early Wednesday morning. Read about this trip in my other post entitled “Via Rail Travel – Excursion #1”.
So ended my first solo Canadian provincial vacation – I had a fabulous time, achieved my beach swim goal, suffered no glitches, well other than not being able to find the horse ranch, and felt empowered to start planning next years trip. To the East Coast I go!! New Brunswick and PEI.
Thank you for reading and letting me share.
