Oh yeah, in the 80s after our family moved to Calgary from Iceland we went yearly well in to the 90s. So many great memories in Markerville. Back then Sylvan lake had a beach too.
I only attended one Gimli festival, its the same time as the major one here in Iceland (retail workers weekend) which is this weekend, it was a blast and I've been 2 times to Gimli, its such a neat place and the locals who are many generations Canadian love their Icelandic traditions, food and many of them even speak pretty decent Icelandic.
