June 14 Wednesday- Moose Jaw-We stop at the visitors center across the street. We go to the History of transportation museum where there are old cars ,planes.trains and other land water & ait tranaportation. The museum also houses an observatory. The home of the Snowbirds also put on a display.. It was very well done and is worth a visit. $6.25 ea. Its lunch time so we go to Coffee encounters where they have free WIFI. I try to get my e-mail but Hotmail is down but I am able to update my blog. After we pay for parking we are told parking is free for visitors downtown. Next we do the tunnels of Moose Jaw. 2 tours $9.10 - the Chicago connection and Al Capone and the prohibition to escape the Americian authorities and the Chinese Labour and laundry and passage to fortune. Very interesting. The tunnels were originally there for the steam heat. We walk around town and look at lots of murals on the sides of buildings. We visit the Burrowing owl interpretive center but it is too windy for the owls to be out. So we see the ones in cages rehabilitating. 4pm it starts to thunder and lightning. Then comes the rain. It was an exciting night it even knocked the satalite system down.
