DAY 21 : July 27/22 Wednesday. Antler ND back over the border to Portage la Praire , Manitoba

 Today was the day that we were headed back into Canada for a stint. Since we ended up driving so far yesterday in search of a place to camp, we found ourselves literally blocks from the border crossing and instead of heading east a bit more and popping up, we just headed north at that crossing. 

We spend the morning in Antler Outlaw Campground giving the RV some TLC inside, wiping three states worth of dust off everything. I had laid out all our soaked towels on the grass to dry in the morning sun in hopes they wouldn't smell quite so yucky when we arrived in Portage and did laundry. 

Putting on our first two stickers of hopefully many! Never did get a Montana Sticker! But we have Idaho and North Dakota on there. 

Crossed the border at Lyleton (only crossing with wifi, we found out - which was lucky because we had to fill out the ArriveCan app.. having had no cell reception or wifi for days!)  Welcomed by the beautiful prairie scenery and bumpy roads!

Stopped in Brandon for a leg stretch, snack and play at this nice playground. 

Jonathan got the kite out for a rip. 

eek! about an hour until we reached Portage :) 

Rainbow on the way to Portage!

Our parking spot at the Davis residence in my early days hometown of Portage la Prairie, MB.
Welcomed with hugs and a delicious salmon dinner followed up with Irish whiskey and coffee. And TWO amazing desserts! xo
