Drove straight from Winnipeg to Thunder Bay along Hwy1/Hwy11/17. Due to the weather, didn't take one photo today. We're also taking the same route we took when we started the trip.
A lot of construction right inside of Winnipeg and along Hwy1 just outside of Winnipeg. Once in Ontario, a lot of road construction right thru to Thunder Bay. Expect stoppages.
Left Winnipeg in a light drizzle and decide to put rain gear on. Paid off as the skies let loose a few times with very heavy downpours. Was overcast and there were very thick clouds for the entire ride to Thunder Bay. Poured heavily again just outside of Thunder Bay. As it is forecast to rain again tonight and tomorrow, we decided to get a hotel room.
Tomorrow, going to try the half mile zip line that is just outside of Thunder Bay. Hope the rain holds off.

Temperature started at 60F or 14C and got up to about 70F.
