Went through potato country east of Brandon. Trees are more numerous and much bigger -mostly leaf trees and lots of dead fir. Strawberries, wheat, canola, soy beans. and flax crops. Checked into Travellers RV (Coast to Coast) east of Winnipeg. Fast moving clouds and cooler temps -puddles all around. Lovely sunset tho.
Today we toured the Royal Canadian Mint -learned so much about, not only our currency , but how many other countries that we manufacture coins for. An hour well spent. Then off to The Forks, the area where three major rivers join, to enjoy a stroll in the sunshine through the Market, unique craft shops, delis, open air cafes & bars, and "buskers" playing their varied tunes on a variety of instruments. We drove through the main parts of downtown, so many large old buildings, mostly brick or stone. One can clearly see that the railroad has played a major role in the development and economy here.
