September 25, 2009

We had a productive day today and are on schedule to head to Arctic Bay tomorrow morning, weather permitting. Colin's brother Ron was on a schedule flight from Iqaluit to Arctic Bay yesterday but the plane wasn't able to land due to fog, so they landed here in Resolute. We were pretty surprised to have Ron knocking at our door last night!!

I guess the hotel in Arctic Bay is full, so some of us are going to take over Ron's house while part of the group will likely have to bunk out in an empty housing unit. Arctic Bay is a larger town so we expect to be there for several days. Ron was nice enough to give us his spare set of truck keys last night so if we get the chance we may take the group touring.

Since we've been working so many hours, it is hard to get out and see the wildlife. Luckily there's a few animals that hang out here at the hotel, as you'll see in our pictures.

Current temperature in Resolute is only minus 8 C.
