Spent all day on the bus! Wasn’t as comfy this time but we managed! We slept most of the way from Winnipeg to Regina where we arrived at 6am! Clear blue skies again. The landscape most of the way was pretty much the same as Winnipeg, flat and boring! It seems fairly dull around the midlands area. Saskatchewan is a very rural state! Dad (Marks) might like it as there’s lots of farmland and some cows!! The biggest city in Saskatchewan is only 200,00 – we thin...

We arrived in the city of Winnipeg after 2 nights and 1day on the bus! The bus station has recently moved to the airport so after much confusion with the bus drivers as to when the buses were going, we managed to get a shuttle bus downtown. As we were the only ones on the bus, the driver dropped us at the door of the hostel - much to the amazement of the hostel workers! Even though we were so early, the lady managed to check us into a room, on our own. The room w...

The weather forecast for during the night was to be stormy and very wet..the first bit of bad weather since we've been here! Luckily we didn't hear anything and slept well! However we woke up to a very dull and wet day..humf! We spent some time at the hostel, on the internet booking some hostels in Banff and for Marks birthday. We managed to escape the rain and made it to the local shopping centre for brunch! We then took shelter there for much of the day and us...

We've been away a week today and we're spending it on the bus! Hmmm!! It's nowhere near as bad as we thought it would be! We both slept all night and I slept most of the morning! The bus stops more often than we thought and more often than not..at a Tim Hortons!! I have fallen for their French Vanilla Cappucino and I think Mark is starting to as well! The scenery on route is so natural and untouched and a fair bit of the journey was alongside Lake Huron and Lake ...

We stayed in Toronto for Monday night but at a different hostel, no sick this time! Shared with a German couple and a lad from Manchester. Had a bit of a lay in as we had a long day ahead of us - bus to Winnipeg wasn't until 1 am! We dropped our stuff at the station and headed for our new found love...Tim Hortons! It's a yummy coffee shop but cheap and does nice food! As it was another nice day we went down to the harbour and chilled in the sun. Even managed to w...
