Picture Day - Grand Beach

Even though the days are still hot the evenings have begun to cool and beach days are looking to have come to an end. We may get one more in this coming weekend but that will be the last for sure. The vibrant green of the forest trees have begun to fade and a few have already fluttered to the ground.



Picture Day - Rainbow Beach

Manitoba has many lakes, and spending a day wandering the sandy beaches is a day well spent.



Picture Day - Manitoba


When most people think of Manitoba, if they think of it at all, it is thought of as a single stretch of flat boring land. Having travelled over a fair amount of this province I can tell you that it isn’t as boring as some would make it out to be, nor is it entirely flat. Although we didn’t drive through either Riding Mountain National Park or Duck Mountain Provincial Park (which is home to Manitoba’s tallest peak Baldy Mountain) you can see them rising in the distance along our drive.
