the forks • 11 comments • The Forks would probably be considered the primary 'tourist attraction' in Winnipeg and we use that term loosely. We are not sure if it actually attracts any tourists - but if you're visiting family/friends here they'll force you to go there. We decided to spend the afternoon there one last time. The skatepark was particularly busy when we walked by. Apparently this is one of the largest skate parks in the country. Tony Hawk filmed some scenes for a movie here a few years ago. We can't believe fall is approaching so quickly. As long as we don't have to be here for another Winnipeg winter, we'll be content.
