it doesn't look, but it is

that pic of downtown by night is amazing, and the fact is that on certain nights it's really like that! There is something about Manitoba...

Hmmm.. I consider the Fords a part of downtown.

Winnipeg's downtown has many distinct areas. The Forks is the jewel of downtown, where people come to meet, relax and enjoy life.

I must say, those pics of the nature in Sask are really nice, but the whiteshell just 2 hours away from Winnipeg has a lot to offer, nevermind Winnipeg only being like 5 hours away from Kenora. Now thats a great place for the cabin. Lake of the Woods is great.

Yeah Lake of the Woods is extremely beautiful.

Winnipeg is extremely fortunate to be so close to so many great beaches. I also think Paticia Beach is absolutely beautiful.

Can't forget Winnipeg Beach .. aka Falcon Beach for all you TV viewers.

Grand Beach is amazing, rated one of the nicest fresh water beaches in the world, but busy on those warm summer weekends.


Oh I can't wait for summer!!!!
