And It Begins....Halifax to Iqaluit

This is me before realizing that this will be my daily outfit for the next 4 weeks


Breakfast and local newspaper on the flight from Ottawa to Iqaluit


Note on the left side... 60 passenger airplane

Hot cookie

Country Food is local traditional food ie. caribou, walrus, seal, etc

Very western sort of traditional family set up, but notice the woman is using an ulu to cut the meat.

no more trees

crossing the strait

baffin island... notice the 'hills'

first sighting of Iqaluit.!



Hotel Arctic, where we stayed

There are carvings like these, and smaller ones all over Iqaluit


pedestrians only

mural on the Iqaluit hospital

High school

just no 4 wheelers, so watch out!



Our Prof's Book!!!

55 dollars for a lamb

nearly 60 dollars for surf and turf

20 dollars for a greek salad


take one/leave one at the Iqaluit airport... amazing idea!




CAPE DORSET!! and edge of the sea ice

cape dorset airport.  It only opens when planes are leaving or arriving, which happens about once or twice a day depending on weather and the day of the week
