Happy Seventh Anniversary to Us!! by Margaret Ullrich

Happy Seventh Birthday to Winnipeg is Better Than Chocolate!!
And thank you for visiting, whether you dropped in on a daily, weekly or occasional basis during the past seven years!

I'm always amazed at learning where you live. 
From the beginning, when I started this blog in 2009, Canada was always the number one country for visitors.
Well, that changed last year. 
The United States is the top visitor now!
Maybe it's due to the change in our dollar's value.

The changes for the past year - a big increase in visitors from Russia and Germany.
Japan is a new member of the top ten group, replacing Poland.
Tourists can sure get a great bang for their vacation buck in Canada.
Hope they are coming to Winnipeg and enjoying a lot of great events here.

According to Blogger there have been 334,573 visitors since this blog began!
That’s almost 53,000 new people taking a look at Winnipeg events since last year!

The top ten countries and their visitors are:
United States………….. 88,784
Canada……………………. 82,359
Germany……..…………. 51,536
Russia…………..………… 34,307
Ukraine.…………..……….12,152
France……………….……. 10,395
United Kingdom….……. 3,557
China………………….…….. 3,134
Japan..………….….….…… 2,533
Slovenia………….….…..… 1,976


During the years there have also been visitors from Moldova, Turkey, Ireland, 
Australia, Singapore, Taiwan, Argentina, Denmark, Japan, Sweden, Eritrea, Italy, 
Finland, Spain, the Netherlands, Macedonia (FYROM), Mexico, Afghanistan, Thailand, 
Slovakia, India,Bangladesh, Israel, Malaysia, Kuwait, Greece, Kenya, Vietnam, 
Czech Republic, Portugal, Bulgaria, Romania, United Arab Emirates and Namibia 
- just to name the top visitors.
I'm so glad you stopped by for a look.
Thank you for taking an interest in events happening here in Winnipeg!


It’s been interesting learning what types of events you’re interested in attending.
I do pay attention to which posts get the most visits.
I’ll be posting more of those, and similar, events.
I'll also be cutting down on the events that you're not interested in seeing.
Who has time to waste, right?

Hope you’re also enjoying hearing the music from our up-and-coming musicians!
