Lukewarm soup in the wilderness today but it didn't matter because I saw King of the Arctic! Looked at him and he looked back at me! A tremendous moment for me to be locking eyes with this majestic beast (in his own natural environment no less). Without the glass and steel of the frame of the massive vehicle it would be too uncomfortable. Just the window was between me and the male polar bear! I also saw a super fluffy, super white, super cute arctic hare, a mother bear with 2 cubs, 2 silver foxes, and many ptarmigans. What a wonderful day!
My last lunch in Winnipeg, at the airport, very reluctantly.
Burgers everywhere
My plane to the north.
A couple of minutes before touchdown.
Most people got off here, some people waited for another connection. Cool number plate. Check out the (written) native dialect.
Goodbye Rankin Inlet. It was nice seeing you. After about an hour the plane turned around and I went with it. My travel companion and I were the only 2 people to get off at the next destination. The plane went back to Winnipeg.
And this is where I am at the moment. 0C during the day, with on and off (sometimes intense) flurries all day and night.
