Drove on it without even realising the fact

We do plan to visit the lake/park, so a stroll over this bridge will be included.

I do know a place or two for Saskatoon, but I haven't been to Regina before so really can't comment much.

No worries. We plan to stay in the city, so no nature stuff this time!

A tour of the SK Legislature is worth doing. Walking from there to the University of Regina is possible.
The Roughriders are SK's CFL team. Visiitng their new stadium and picking up Rider merch are also recommended.

Thanks. The legislature was something on our potential list, so we'll check it out.

Being a whiskey lover, this is a great suggestion! I was contemplating staying at the Hotel Saskatchewan, but found a really good rate at the Delta instead.

Ahhh... we'll be there just before it opens for the season in early May, so will be missing it.
