Happy Anniversary to Winnipeg is Better Than Chocolate and to you, its readers!
Thank you for visiting, whether you’re a regular or a ‘new to you’ visitor.
Also, a huge thank you to everyone who has told their friends about Winnipeg.
Since 2009 there have been over 642,000 visitors.
For the first few years Canada was the number one country for visitors.
Well, a few years ago people from the United States became the top visitors.
I hope it’s meant that folks in the States are curious about what we have here.
Maybe they will come for a vacation, or at least come up to see a show or to take part in an event, such as Folklorama.
Folks in the States know that they can get a great bang for their vacation buck here.
Germany, Russia and the Ukraine are still among the top ten countries.
Hope you'll be coming to Winnipeg to enjoy great events here, too.
The Philippines is also still one of the top ten visiting countries.
I’m not surprised. Winnipeg has a large, vibrant Philippine community.
Maybe people have decided to see a few shows while visiting family and friends.
These are the places where our top twenty visitors come from:
United States………….. 207 K

I do notice which posts get the most visits.
Posts about live music, family activities, Winnipeg Architecture Foundation events and walks, sales (especially seasonal and craft), classes (both in-person and online), and fundraisers have been popular.
I’ll continue posting more of those, and similar, events.
Please take a moment and comment when you have enjoyed an event.
Local musicians and writers check when they’re in the media and they love the feedback.
Once again, thank you so much for visiting!
As I said when Sophie and I signed off our weekly show...
Have a great weekend. How can you miss - you're in Winnipeg!
