We spent last night in a campground we got out of the 2011 RV and Campground guide from Trailer Life Directory. Compfort Plus RV Park, White City, Sask. A place we won't come to again. We usually don't complain about a place, but this place is a rip off. We thought because it is listed in the book that it would be nice, and this is the first place worth complaining about. It is on a terrible road, kind of in a backyard of a farm, they have lots of spaces, but not enough water pressure to go around. Took my reservation, but when we got here they were confused about where to put us......anyway my rating for this place is 5 out of 10. If that even matters. Our last days in Winnipeg were great. ... read more

Well I arrived late last night, Drove with a co-worker all the way from Vancouver to Regina non-stop. Well we stopped once for about 15 mins to eat and get gas. She drove from Van to Calgary, and I drove the rest of the way. I found it really odd to be away from the mountains and ocean of my native BC, it seems as soon as one enters Alberta, there are no longer such things as mountains and bodies of water. The road stretched as far as the horizon, and went straight for hours and hours. After one sore-ass ride to Regina, we got there in the middle of the night. I drove while Denise got out the maps to help navigate our way to the youth hostel in downtown Regina. ... read more

If we thought the rockies were intense, welcome to the prairies, so far close on a 1000km of supposedly flat land. Everybody you speak to tells you, "oh yeah its all down hill from the rockies" , "oh yeah, its all flat from *insert town we are passing through" But well......its not. I mean, compared to the rockies, this is flat, thats for sure, but the majority of the riding has been up and down small hills. The prairies are varied and beautifull, the one thing that is shared in common of all the areas we have passed through prairies so far is that you have a humongous, beautifull, ever changing sky, and , there are absouloutley no trees! A lady me and teyln chatted with told us "In the rockies, you know your coming to ... read more

We made it to the airport. Now that Todd knows that Larry C is here he felt it was OK for him to go. If I thought the weather was bad yesterday, it was nothing compared to today. Our flight has not been canceled, but we’re not off the ground yet. I took a picture out the front window that I will post once I get to Toronto….... read more

We got a good head start on the storm this morning. It had definitely snowed the forecasted 10 cm or more. We thought the wind might get up and give us poor visibility so we were gone by 8:30. The trip was uneventful which is good. Tomorrow we will plan to be at the airport by 9:30 as my flight is scheduled for 11:25 am. The internet connection at this hotel is poor so I’ll have to get this update published tomorrow when I get to Toronto. Until then… ... read more
Not too much snow...

First our flight was delayed and then it was cancelled. This weather it not supposed to let up until around midnight. We have re-booked for tomorrow morning @ 6:35 and it will depend if the corresponding flight from Toronto can land in Regina when it is supposed to. If all goes well, Larry C will pick me up @ 4:30 am and we will start the entire process again. We are both looking at this experience as practice for delays that can happen while travelling in Ghana. I will try to relax and get a good night's sleep tonight as I will have a VERY early morning tomorrow.... read more
