Dryden was nice but we wanted to get to Thunder Bay and had to get an early start. We knew it was going to be a long drive. Ethan spent almost the entire drive working on his origami designs. We like how he has found ways to be creative and to keep busy while we drive...

Winnipeg was great, but it was time to move on and get to Ontario; specifically, Kenora. As a roadschooling family, we’re trying to take things slowly on this trip and we do need to find more time for Ethan to just play and go to the library, too. One thing we’ve...

Winnipeg turned out to be an amazing city to visit; not to mention the fact that it has a fantastic VW Westfalia shop that got Juju Jr. back to 100% health. The “Winterpeg” moniker might be true when things get cold, but fall is a great time to visit this...

This was an unusual day because we spent most of it at Southland VW in Medicine Hat. We were going to head towards Regina, SK, but because of the issues Juju Jr. was having, we needed to find out what was going on with him first. But it doesn’t mean there...

Today was a short travel day, as we only drove from Brooks, AB, to Medicine Hat, AB. We decided we needed a day to relax and hang out at the library. Yesterday out in Drumheller at the dinosaur museum was a very full day so a rest day was in order. Roadschooling and...
