Thanks Ian. It is very interesting to see your school. Back in the day, I had my students research a few places in Nunuvut and they reflected on how their life would differ if they lived in the North. CBC has lots of good video clips, but your tour is great!
Hello all- Was just thinking about the south this morning and so made a little morning video:fixed the link. https://youtu.be/lD_lGkvix2I Have a great day.
This was our first Sunday in our new home! We went for a walk down to the harbour and there was a great view of Hudson Bay! It was a windy Day. The Weather App told us that with the wind chill it was -42 celcius! Kids were tobogganing without covered faces. Everyone who goes by waves and says hello! We discovered that the COOP which is the one store in town is not open on Sundays, so we decided to head back after we stopped at the Bay. Then we had a call from the DEA secretary. She is the District Educational Authority secretary. Sort of like a local set of Trustees. Her daughter works for CALM Air and had let her mother know that our shipped goods had arrived. So Agatha, the secretary called the local bus driver and asked him to fire up the bus and head to the airport to pick up our stuff. We have no vehicle and the airport is about 7 km away. The other option we would have had was to check what the local RCMP was...
So we arrived safely after three days in transit. Thanks for following our adventures. It will take us a long time to think about and process all we observed, participated in and experienced.
