A DAY IN WINNIPEG









Eunice and I made our way to the Exchange District BIZ at Old Market Square for something called a Death & Debauchery tour. This company seems to have other walking tours, but we thought this would be a bit naughty and more interesting to hear. All about explosions, angry mobs, prostitutes and eating bears! We also loved just simply checking out this area as well.

Afterward we went to the Manitoba Museum at 190 Rupert Avenue and managed to hit all eight interpretive galleries including the Hudson's Bay Company gallery and the full-size replica ship Nonsuch, whose voyage in 1668 led to the founding of the Hudson's Bay Company. At least that's what they told us. We just liked checking it out.

During the evening Eunice and I went to Kildonan Park to see the show RENT, since we never got to see it on Broadway. Thank goodness we have rubber skins 'cause the mosquitoes were really biting. I think we'll let Merle tell you about the taxi ride, though.
