Drove out of Thunder Bay in the fog and took a side trip to Kakabeka Falls (pictured below). A nice stop and the only stop really of interest. The rest of the drive to Winnipeg was a little busy, a little bumpy (road construction) and a little boring. I was surprised at how flat it was driving into Winnipeg. We saw lots of geese battling the wind as we were battling it driving in the car. Thankful that I was not on a bike and in awe of cyclists who do this route across Canada. Maybe you need to be a bit crazy or a bit suicidal. Whatever it is I don't have it. I am sure my family is thankful for that. No coffee news really. We stopped at the same chain as yesterday (Robson Coffee) but it was not as good as I remembered. Thanks to Don for some good car music...yes I found some cd's in the glove compartment. What is with the Hungarian Choir???

Discovered! My wife found my hidden cache of Hungarian Choir Music.
ReplyDeleteI first heard of the "Trio Bulgarka" on the credits of a Kate Bush album. I don't usually read album credits in detail but this sound was something very unique, that compelled me to investigate. Here is the Kate Bush tune:

In truth, I like Kate Bush better than the whole Hungarian Choir thing, but you have to admit they have a unique sound and incredible talent, even if you are not in love with the music.
