Random pics around town

We thought we would just post some random pictures that we have taken around town. Although some are hard to see, read the description and I'll try and give an idea where the picture is.


This is a picture taken with Laura in front of our house. This is Thanksgiving weekend and look at all that lovely snow!



This is picture of the town taken from the hill behind our house. It was taken in August. I guess the biggest thing you can notice is the absence of trees. All of the ground is tundra and in the spring/fall is a combination of rock and mud.


This is a picture of the Igloolik waterfront; the commercial center of Igloolik. It was taken from a man-made shoal in the bay. The shoal was made to protect the boats in the harbour. Most of the boats are gone but a few remain.


This picture is taken from the top of the hill behind our place. It is the other side of Igloolik Island. Notice the absence of hills and mountains. The terrain here is so flat that you can see for kilometres. It takes about 1 hour to walk to the other side of the island.

The connection is very slow right now and I'll add more pictures tomorrow!
