Visiting Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada


The Forks is a lovely riverfront area in the heart of downtown Winnipeg. A meeting place for thousands of years, it is the city's most popular gathering place, attracting nearly four million visitors each year.

As a teenager Neil Young lived in this house on Grosvenor Avenue in Winnipeg. We are staying right down the street on Grosvenor Avenue.


Pedestrian bridge over the Red River in Winnipeg at the Forks.


This bridge is the only one in North America with a restaurant in the middle. We stopped for a bite at the Salisbury House restaurant on the bridge. Great views.


Jon and I both admired the Canadian postal boxes on the street.
