FALL 2016
Long Live Local
I really like the new look of the
magazine, especially the “Weekender”
section. But I would love to see a
story about central and northern
Manitoba—there are some fantastic
places to visit and things to do there.

Editor’s note: We couldn’t agree more,
Bobbi! Check out “Falling for Flin Flon”
on page 56 for a profile of this unique
northern town.
On the Right Track
I enjoyed reading your article (“The
Inside Track”, summer 2016) about
the Rocky Mountaineer. I just wanted
to highlight one item in the article:
In the paragraph about crossing the
Continental Divide, it is mentioned
that “…rivers flow west to the Pacific
or east to the Atlantic.” Waters that
flow east from this point at the
Volume 8, Number 3
Continental Divide do flow east and
eventually north to Hudson Bay—
Manitoba’s link to the world’s oceans.
Keep up the good work!

Icelandic Delights
I’ve been to Iceland several times with
my Icelandic husband, but I don’t feel
your article (“The Ultimate Iceland
Getaway”, summer 2016) adequately
promoted all of the country. Staying
in the Golden Circle is great, but there
is much more to see. In the south, the
greenhouses of Frioheimar are a mustsee. Hydroponic tomatoes surround
you while you dine on fresh tomato
soup and snip basil from a plant on
your restaurant table. If it’s not busy
when you visit, ask to see the Icelandic
ponies at the farm. It’s a family-run
business and they love to tell you all
about it.
