Warm Greetings

We've all arrived safely at Yellowknife and settled at the hotel. I feel very at home with these friendly fellow Canadians! Surprisingly walking out of the plane with my sweaters expecting to see my breath, I actually ended up just wearing a t-shirt around! The temperatures in Resolute and Eureka are very cold, however - so we will have very good use for the parkas we tried on today.
It's dark out as I'm typing this, and a group of us are driving out to get away from the city lights... to enjoy the northern lights! It's a great clear night, and we can even see a great streak of green rising from the horizon just outside. I want to reach up and grab them so I can show you.

  4. Hello,

    It sounds like an exiting trip! Hope you have a good time in Eureka, and don't forget to try some blubber and raw seal or walrus meat.

  5. Hi Jasmine,

    Everyone at the assembly Friday thought it was so cool you were up North! I am sorry you missed Cafe Nite; it was good; please attend next year as an alumni. Try to get some pictures of the Northern Lights; the trip sounds awesome. Can't wait to hear about it when you are back. Mr.Olah
