Connected Heritage INSPIRATION 2

More time exploring in Gimli, Manitoba. Now getting to the Viking roots...

Famous Icelandic cake - Vinar Terta

into the museum for some history

the boats in town still fly the Icelandic flag

a visit out to Hecla Island

and Grassy Narrows Park

then a field of sunflowers on the way back to Winnipeg

and we couldn't leave Winnipeg without a visit to the architecturally stunning Canadian Museum for Human Rights

Connected Heritage INSPIRATION 1

Our trip to Gimli, on Lake Winnipeg in Manitoba, saw us visiting an Icelandic horse farm

drove from Winnipeg north and experienced some amazing skies

learnt some history of the area

large percentage of lake front owners have their own planes

checking the beach for "Lucky Stones"

then off for a fish and chips dinner
