More Family history

We left Carberry and went to Sydney, MB. Fran lived there when she was a little girl, when she was about 2 years old- then end of 1st grade. We saw her old school house which they have now made bigger and I think it’s a community center and her old house and church. It was a nice small town and when we went to the general store to mail Fran`s letters, the lady that owned the store started talking and she said she had a book about the town from a long time ago so we went inside and sat. They talked forever then we got milk and chips. We had lunch down by the tracks on a picnic table but still in town. 
After we left we went to Winnipeg looking for Stella Mission church and we ended up finding it. After we went to VIA rails for free wifi and I updated my blog. We stayed there for a long time then went to The Forks. It is a little place, with food and shops. We looked around then had dinner. The Olympics were on there so we watched a little of the opening ceremonies. We went to go find Fran's old house and Winnipeg and find it as well. Then went to the Parliament Building and saw the Golden boy. I asked Bill to drop my camera again so that I could get a new one. We went to Steinbach for the night.
