Tansy arrives in Winnipeg
Our brave and daring Tansy Has gone off to Winnipeg, and thanks to the wonders of Canada Post Tracking numbers we could see that she arrived today!
Much to our delight, her kindly and considerate host sent us a picture almost immediately! Tansy has got her wish to experience a Canadian prairie winter, including snow over her head. She’s glad she brought her sled!

It was very gratifying to see that Tansy has landed in a house that understands the restorative properties of Tea!

Tansy, tea and those that treat tired travelers thoughtfully-thankfulness.
When winter wind whistles in Winnipeg, restorative rewarming refreshments are required!
Lovely.
How brave of Tansy to travel to Winnipeg with -45 degree weather! I hope she has fun on her sled!
It was only -33 today with the wind chill – things are warming up!
How wonderful that Tansy is realizing her dream! And how lovely that she is being hosted with such care and
whimsy.
Tansy is very happy to be looked after by such kind and considerate hosts.
Brrr. The girls left at home seem quite anxious to learn of Tansy’s arrival. Understandably since the mail planes are cold – I hope she had lots of insulation as well as that nice coat.
I see that Patience and Rose have coordinated clothing today. They must have been hanging out together!
The trick to staying warm is layering! Patience and Rose were the lucky recipients of a sewing extravaganza last weekend!
A warm cup of tea after experiencing snow and travel as well is of course very necessary and we can see she has settled in already for her adventures. What fun she is going to have.
I think she will have a great time! Many Hittys take after the Book Hitty, and love to travel and have adventures. I hope Hitty Madge has tea waiting for her after her flight to New Zealand!
Dear little Tansy, We’re glad she has arrived safely in Winnipeg, how snowy it looks! But her coat looks magnificently warm. I just love her lovely red inside outfit. We’re going to mark Winnipeg on our cloth map of the US (plus… 8 inches of Canada LOL) .. and put a little doll figure there. Tansy is one of my favourites out of the Hittys I’ve been looking at all month :-))) Glad to think of her drinking Restorative Tea. I hope the other Quimper Hittys don’t miss her too much and have some fun. Is Tansy visiting with another doll? Love from the WrenCottageDolls 🙂
Tansy is sure to have a wonderful visit to the Canadian prairies. She is the Quimper Hitty that has no qualms about going off on her own. She had an excellent trip to Haida Gwaii with the Hitty’s favourite photographer!
See https://quimperhitty.wordpress.com/tag/haida-gwaii for her solo adventures in Haida Gwaii two summers ago.
Apparently there are plans afoot to show her many of the notable sights around Winnipeg, and the other Hittys are very glad to await Tansy’s reports from Distant lands.
Sorry there was a broken link in the comment above – it is fixed now!
Nothing like a hot cup of tea (English style) to warm you up, while it is freezing cold outside. Enjoy your stay in Winnipeg, Tansy dear. Your hitty sisters will surely miss you and look forward to all the tales of your adventure!!
Tansy is ready to have fun and drink as much tea as is offered! The rest of the Quimper Hittys are curious about what she will get up to!
