Other than Saskatchewan, which is waaaaaay too flat, every province and territory is well worth a visit.

When driving through Saskatchewan .........
If you don't have a self driving automobile, you can always tie a shoelace to your steering wheel. 😛

While driving through Saskatchewan on the TCH, in the late summer of 1968, I found myself going 140/mph when the speed limit was 70. There was nothing to judge your speed by, no tees, telephone poles ( I don’t think the folks there knew what they were) other than the speedometer, which I wasn’t looking at. When I did notice my speed I dropped down to 70, which felt as though I wasn’t moving at all.😲

I am always careful when going double the speed limit as there are some real idiots on the roads these days. 😀

I think I should see more of the other Scandinavian countries. I have seen little of Norway and Denmark, and nothing of Finland and Iceland.

Have you been above the Arctic circle? I always thought that would be a cool thing to do. 🥶

Might go and watch Tromso one day and see the Northern lights.

Tromsø is a beautiful place and the Northern lights seem like a miracle.

I'm guessing summer would be the time to visit. I'd imagine severe winters??


@divegeester
