Day Four: Goodbye Saskatchewan!

Day four began in a lush campground in Yorkton. It was a sweet little oasis on the prairie. A good breakfast and then we started driving for Manitoba!
On the way, we stopped to soak up the Canadiana surrounding us. 

Railways and hay bales everywhere, and a sky that went on forever. 

This is big country, but we finally arrived in Winnipeg and went directly to an historic site. Louis Riel House is a modest memorial site to honour this Canadian figure. 


What would a visit to Winnipeg be without a stop at Portage and Main. At least we were there in August!

We did not get far out of Winnipeg before we called it a day. A late dinner and bedtime in Norman. Tomorrow is marathon number three!
