Tha scenery stays the same but it must be Manitoba, because that's what the sign says.

Now I admit that I do not enjoy cycling in the rain and so when a storm blew up I was happy to hole up in an old shed. There might have been few planks missing but it kept me and the swallows who shared my home dry. I spent 24 hours in the sleeping bag and caught up on some shuteye.

I tell you, when rain threatens I'll put up with anything. Even a 'long drop' keeps the rain off--and the seat is comf too!


Through Winnipeg and we've reached the geographic middle of Canada. Still a long way to go though.
