Hey Fozzie, where've we gone?

Today we drove from Winnipeg to Saskatoon. As mentioned, Winnipeg seemed oddly empty. We figured that's because we arrived on a Sunday evening, but here we are, Monday morning, and it still seems pretty empty. Amanda and I walked around the city a little bit while Jamie and Katie enjoyed sleeping in a little bit. We checked out the hotel's water slide before leaving for the open prairie.

Manitoba is beautiful in its vastness. Nothing but highway, fields, and sky stretching in every direction. We stopped for lunch in a place called White Horse, which featured a statue of a white horse, something about young lovers being killed instead of living happily ever after, the horse was a gift somewhere in there. At lunch we discovered that the oranges that caused us so much trouble at International Falls? One orange hid in the bottom of our bag and made it back through customs and into Canada again!

We have arrived safely in Saskatchewan. Our hostel for the night here in Regina is a really lovely old house. We're the only girls in the building so we have an enormous room to ourselves!
