Things to See & Do in Manitoba -  (The 2nd COVID19 Year)

COVID-19 changed our lives in many ways, but we were the lucky ones.  We were already working from home, and we were OK with staying in Manitoba and enjoying the things we have right here on our doorstep. It just so happened that we had dedicated the 2019 year to local travel and had documented that story in Virtual Manitoba. So it was natural to continue the process.



Yes there is still plenty to see in Manitoba!
