Where I stayed
Winnipeg to Saskatoon
487 miles (784 kilometres)
8 hours 44 minutes estimated driving time
Good drive today again. Rained for about the first half of the trip but sunny skies as we arrived in Saskatchewan. ?Had a picnic lunch in Wolseley SK. The Prairies are not as flat as some would have you believe! Jane drove for the last couple of hours of the trip and George had a snooze complete with major snoring! Left Winnipeg at 7:50 and arrived in Saskatoon at 4:10 CST...apparently SK doesn't go to daylight savings time so we gained an hour. Freshened up and drove to the New Asia Buffet (big lineup for tables but we knew the owners) and reunited with Minh, Laurie (Hoa) and Michael (Manh) Chau. Had a terrific dinner and afterwards toured the Fringe Festival ... a real eye opener. Off to Edmonton tomorrow to see Phuong and Karen (Kanh) and some brief sightseeing.
