    September 2 in Canada ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

    Imaobong had to work till noon so we waited for her to be through before commencing the day's sightseeing, leaving the apartment shortly after 1pm.

    Our first stop was the bank for the girls to pay in their shopping money into their account.

    Today was unusually cold at 17 degrees, and since I didn't have any light jacket, we went to H&M at Polo Park mall after exiting TD bank at the same Polo Park to buy a jacket

    After which we headed for the Canaduan Museum of Human Rights. The museum is housed in a beautifully designed masterpiece with 8 floors of exhibits focused on different aspects of human rights. Adult fee 22 CAD while young adults were charged 11 CAD. The museum was very informative and we spent 3hrs there.

    After exiting the museum, we headed for the famous Forks, passing by the world famous Winnipeg signage for a photo moment and then walking to the Forks Market, which is a well known winnipeg site for foods and drinks. There were a few souvenir stores there, but it was mainly occupied by stores selling foods. The Forks market comprises of two floors with middle court yards open to the ceiling for dinners to sit and enjoy their meals. I had a customised Craft Beer "BOXING ROCK - PUCK OFF BLONDE ALE" for 11 CAD from the "Commons".

    On our way back to the apartment, we stopped at NOFRILLS store to buy more groceries for breakfast.
