Our first morning in Resolute

When I went to bed at 12 am last night the sun was shinning on the other side of the hotel and I thought, "I can handle this land of the midnight sun." But at 5 am this morning the sun was already high in the sky and shinning in my window.
Today we visited the local school to meet the principal and staff. We were honoured by the souvenirs they bestowed upon us and humbled by the plans they have for us this week - sea ice walk, cultural crafts, food such as polar bear, seal, char, and caribou, and music - throat singing and drumming.
This is a special trip for all of us ambassadors from across Canada and the wealth of knowledge we're gaining is incredible.
