I am going to be in Winnepeg for 1 day and night next week. For anyone familiar with the area: What would you recommend I see or do for fun in that limited time frame. Bars, restaurants, scenic, city culture, etc.
So far the Bayat Inuit Gallery looks interesting.

Does it really suck that bad? I am doing usability testing at locations around N America. The small town in Manitoba I am actually testing in should be a lot worse.
What about Winnipeg Art Gallery?

Yeah, most people don't go to winnipeg, I live a few hours east of it. There isn't much to going on there...especially this time of year.

Maybe see if propaghandi wants to entertain you. Those boys will play in your basement and clean up afterwards. Nice folk.

There's got to be something there. I guess the bright side is I will only be there one day.

The Mint?
I was there two summers ago with my family and we visited relatives. It was alright, but I had more fun hanging out with relatives than actually doing anything in the city.
We saw Folklorama, went shopping downtown (which isn't too exciting), and the we went to about 5 beaches.
The beaches were good, but they're only considered beaches to people who live in central Canada, where they aren't many beaches. Otherwise they'd just seem like giant swimming-pool type things.
But, have fun. You can generally just hang around and enjoy the fields.

Thanks, I might check out Assiniboine Park and the art gallery. Inuit art sounds interesting. It doesn't have to be really exciting because I will be really busy all week anyway.
