A Week in Canada - Winnipeg to The International Peace Garden, Part 2 - Souris

Our next major stop on the way to the International Peace Garden, was Souris, Manitoba.

Souris lies about 160 miles west of Winnipeg.  It is home to the famous Swinging Bridge and also is the home of Canadian hockey coach, Andy Murray.

Souris-25

 

The swinging bridge apparently isn't as interesting as it was in days of yore, having been replaced by a more modern and "less swinging" version.

Remnants of the old bridge remain for inspection and inspiration.

The present bridge has sturdy cables for suspension

Souris-18

 

Linda and I both crossed the Souris river without concern.  (We are shown at opposite ends in these photos.)

Meanwhile, a jet ski plied the waters of the river providing great fun for the occupants.
