So our journey to Churchill, Manitoba started at 4.30am on Sunday when we got up to get ready for over 6.30am flight to Winnipeg. From Winnipeg we where getting the train at 8.13pm, which left us with the entire day in Winnipeg which you would think it wouldn't be hard to spend the day in a city! Winnipeg has not a lot in it, we asked people before we came what to do and the people from here couldn't really think of anything! We ended up looking around the shops and then going to see 2 films in a row at the cinema! It was cheap so that was good, the first show we where the only people in the cinema!
After our long day we headed to get the train that left over an hour late. It was a day and a half nearly 2 day train journey (we where 5 hours late, got free lunch) with 2 overnights. First night wasn't so bad as we where tired and there weren't as many people on the train so we could have 2 seats each but the second night there where people getting on and off and your back was still sore from the night before that you couldn't really sleep in the uncomfortable upright position. I don't really mind the time on the train read my book and then got made fun of because I had my disney kids colouring-in book, the train conductor gave me one of the VIA rail colouring books and crayons that they would give to kids. Mandy couldn't believe I was colouring-in but at least i wasn't bored, i told her it could be worse I could have my knitting and she said she wouldn't have let me!
