Up packed and on the road by 7am, probably the most enthusiastic start to a day that would end in Winnipeg ever!

Saying that arriving in the city it seemed on 1st impressions pretty nice, parked up on the east bank of the Red River and walked into the city for breakfast followed by a walk round downtown which I admit wasn't all that but then we headed to a park/shopping area on the river called the Forks (its on the fork of two rivers) and that was great, old warehouse converted into markets all surrounded by parkland and rivers on two sides, plus its a national historic site pretty cool.

Also pretty cool was our hotel which for what we paid for it was punching way above its weight :-)

In the evening we went to a pub in the exchange district an up and coming area north of downtown where the beer and food was also better than the price implied, a good evening was had by all :-)
