Hello and welcome to the 28th episode of my trip! Today's episode is the fifth one of our road trip across Canada and the USA. When leaving to backpack the world this year, we always intended to return to our campervan in Vancouver and drive to the east coast.

In this episode, I am covering our trip from Regina to Riding National Park in Manitoba all the way to Thunder Bay in Ontario. A serious amount of ground is covered in this one as we smash past 1000 km. Riding National Park was a little dream of a place by Clear Lake, a must-visit in Manitoba. We then headed for our first big city break in Winnipeg where we rented out an Airbnb to have a day of doing nothing as well as discovering the city on either side of that break. We survived the awful roads of Winnipeg as we headed out East towards Thunder Bay via Kenora which was a 700 km day! A lot of driving in this one with great views. We finish off with a free night at a boat launch to pull back on the overspend of our budget.

The places visited - Riding National Park - Clear Lake, Winnipeg, Kenora + Thunder Bay

Total KMs - 1700kms!
