This blog will be used to document my travels within my own province of Manitoba as well as extended trips I take throughout Canada. I intend to see as much of Canada as I can by travelling only as a Mystery Shopper. As a Mystery Shopper I am paid a fee to visit a business. It may be a restaurant, bank, clothing store or some other form of business. I cannot tell you who pays me or what specific businesses I visit. But I can show you the roads I travel on, and the sites I see.

June 20 Fathers Day and a trip to Gimli
We had to go north of Winnipeg on Fathers Day and I had a Mystery Shop that needed to get done in Gimli, so we combined the two.
This shop had a bit of flexibility in dates. I had a few days to choose from, so I took advantage of a trip we were already taking along Hwy #9. We left early in the day and went up to Gimli for the shop. We got a few pictures while in Gimli. There is a Viking statue located in a park along the water. There is also a plane mounted on a pillar, and a cute fountain with frogs spitting water.
While in town, we looked up an old friend and had a visit. Then we were headed back down the Hwy for a Fathers Day BBQ, and then home.
It's nice when we can combine personal visits with the Mystery Shops.
