Christopher Lake
Benson35 Says:
Christopher Lake in Pince Albert National Park is a 'get-away' people come to to enjoy the weather, the view and sailing their boats.This area of the National Park doesn't cost anything to get to or to sail your boat.I was taken by how big it is. It's lined with trees and...
Prince Albert National Park
Benson35 Says:
Prince Albert National Park is huge. There are villages and holiday/vacation areas within the National park (I've written a review of Waskesiu which is a holiday/vacation village). Driving through, taking the 'scenic' routes were beautiful. The colours of the trees, the...
Galaxy Cinema
Benson35 Says:
Have a taste of what a Canadian cinema is like and visit Galaxy. Admission is under $10 and is cheaper for children and seniors.Galaxy shows up to date films and you can buy snacks and drinks in the cinema too.Great idea for a chilled night out or to spend some time when the...
The Northern Lights Casino
Benson35 Says:
The casino is the place to be when the weather is bad and you can't travel far. I was so surprised how busy it was during the day. We went twice, once I won, the other I lost! But hey ho, I won a lot more than I lost!!!My Uncle and Auntie took us. We signed up as new members...

The Brew Pub: The only pub in PA!

My family and I went here twice; once in the afternoon, and again for a night. It's a big pub with plenty of tables to sit at. There is a separate room if you are just dining if you prefer to sit there.You can watch all of the big sports matches here. It boasts the largest...

Flying at 30,000 feet above...
Darby2 Says:
Flying at 30,000 feet above the northern end of the huge expanse of Lake Winnipeg. You can see this large curved bay on most maps! We were flying in to Kasba Lake, NWT from Winnipeg for 4 days of prime fishing
Winners: The TXMaxx of Canada!
Benson35 Says:
I would liken Winners to TXMaxx. It has clothes, furniture, homewear, shoes, books, beauty products, Halloween dressing up outfits (I assume this is only at this time of year?), accessories and jewellery. It's a shop you have to rummage through, but when you find that bargin...

The Mall has different shops catering for different tastes and needs. There are clothes shops, beauty shops, sports shops, $1 shops, furniture shops, shoe shops and a food court.It's not a big Mall but shopping is shopping! I enjoyed the time I spent here mooching around the...
Many shops around PA: Shopping for art

We were very lucky to share in this Native tradition in Prince Albert. As my Auntie is a Native from the Cree tribe, she goes every year to show her support and watch her Grandchildren dance.Everybody participating in the Pow Wow dress in traditional (sometimes exaggerated...
In a Canadian home
Benson35 Says:
Just a quick tip!When entering a Canadian home, take your shoes off and leave them by the door (on the inside) unless your are directed to put them into a closet nearby.
Gus's Automotive
This is the place that fixed our car in half the time and saved us lots of $$$. They did a great job and even gave us a loaner car.

Walk-in clinics
Favorite thing: It's handy to know that throughout Canada there are walk-in clinics.
Travel insurance including medical insurance will cover costs.
