Winnipeg


Today we arrived in Winnipeg, Canada and there is more snow here than I have ever seen. Papa and Nana took me to a sliding hill where Daddy took me down on an orange sleigh. We went really fast! After a while I got tired of sliding so I would push the sleighs down the hill and make Daddy chase after them.

There was so much snow I just wanted to roll around in it. There was way more snow here than in Minneapolis. I even like to eat snow although Daddy tells me only to eat the really white stuff.

We came to Winnipeg just after the winter so the shadows were really long. I had never really noticed shadows before so I spent part of the morning standing in Papa, Nana, and Daddy's shadow.


I like going up and down the hill but I when I got tired I made Dad carry me up and down the hill as necessary.


In only one morning I became a leading authority on sleds. Here's a picture of me explaining to dad how to operate the breaking system.


The hills we were on were not that big but I could see really really far. I hadn't been this high since the being on th gondola in Colorado!

Momma was there too but she didn't dress warm enough so she spent a lot of her time in car warming up. She doesn't have Canadian blood in her like I do. I think it makes me a lot tougher. My nose and cheeks were red by the time we went home but I still didn't want to leave. I can't wait to go again!
