3450 feet under Thompson

We had an exciting morning tour of Inco- Nickel mines for an underground tour! It was kind of scary to be going down into the mine shaft 3450 feet below the earth. It was fantastic how they take down all the heavy equipment apart and send them down on the elevator and re -assemble underground in the Garagemahal as they call it. We are enjoying the unique activities ( highlights) of the various towns visited besides the vocations too.

The Pisew falls and the other amazing natural wonders of Canada are fantastic.

Soon it will be time to leave Canada. How time flies when you are having the time of your life. To Fred and the kids I will be home soon. Nohonga kite mamao.

Hey There Dad, Photos are terrific - didn't know you could ride a horse!! I bet Hilda was excited about all the ice and snow being from the hot part of the world. Hope you all enjoy the last few days of your visit. Love Stacy XX
