(a.k.a. What I miss about Winnipeg, which I must admit has been in my thoughts a lot lately having discovered Google Earth)
- Osbourne Village - Having left Winnipeg at a ripe old age of 16, I never really got to know Osbourne Village but I do remember it to be a funky old place.
- The drive from Fort Garry to St. Norbert.
- The drive from Fort Garry to Tuxedo.
- Going to Mac's on a summer's night.
- Playing tennis against VMC wall.
- Riding around Wildwood Park.
- Riding down Chevrier Boulevard to White Ridge.
- Trying not to fall off my bike while going around that corner at Crescent Drive Park, then pedalling like the dickens while trying so hard not to look at the cemetary on my way out of Crescent Drive Park.
- St. Boniface.
- Not getting to see more of Winnipeg.
- 49c Super Big Gulps.
- Walking out your front door and seeing someone you went to school with.
- Dairy Queen.
- Seeing the Blue Bombers home ground grandstand in the distance as you drive to Polo Park.

Not sure if you can get this issue in Australia, but there's a segment on Wildwood Park.
