We have moved on from The Pas to points north and east. The first part of the drive is a sad reminder about what's happening - you better believe climate change is having a major impact on our world.
We made a deliberate detour to Flin Flon, a northern town on the Manitoba/Saskatchewan border. Turned out to be a good idea as we needed gas and a few groceries and there was absolutely none of either for the balance of the trip today. It was a surprise to us that it was a 120 kilometre detour because we had to backtrack 60 km to get back to the highway east.
"We're where?"
CarPlay went a little berserk on the drive east. At about the 200 kilometre mark it showed the vehicle travelling backwards, sometimes sideways and the mileage countdown added kms instead of subtracting. We assumed it was a temporary quirk and it was. No problem, we could easily have found our destination without any assistance.
We're at the Paint Lake Lodge Cabins. The cabin itself is not the nicest (took forever to get the wi-fi working, missing dishes and supplies and you don't want to see the bathroom) but the view is gorgeous.
Stay with us - not sure what's on tap for tomorrow.
