Oh, Canada


Hubby and I went to Winnipeg, Manitoba for a little mini-vacation.
It was a good trip!
The locals were really, really nice.
.
We went to the Assiniboine Zoo, which was much bigger than we expected.
..
We saw elk...

.

...and cheetahs...

.

...and camels...

..

...and prairie dogs...

...and many other animals, too.

.

We saw a sculpture garden...

.

...and the Esplanade Riel, which is a walkway across the river, with a restaurant in the middle.

.

But there was one thing we really couldn't get used to.

.

Apparently, in Winnipeg, you can drive in the parking lane, unless there's a car parked there.

.

We'd be driving, and then, we'd have to move over because there was a car parked there. Or the people in that lane would suddenly need to pull over.It was so strange!

.

Other than that, we had a really nice time in Winnipeg.
