Back to Winnipeg, sadly
... up to our separate rooms for a luxurious shower or bath. Our bunkhouse showers had to be less than three minutes to conserve water. Tonight at the dinner the owner of Frontiers North said that it was the coldest the Cape had been in November for many years. When we landed at Winnipeg it was -13C. We have met very friendly people from around the world and exchanged email addresses etc. I was keeping a tally of the number of polar bears . I only did it for 5 days and saw about ...

Day 4
Today I started the morning with a 5:15am wake up call, then packed up all my things and headed down to the hotel restaurant for a 6am breakfast with our tour group. A full on cooked breakfast was available, scrambled eggs, sausages, toast, cereal, bacon, coffee, tea and of course fresh fruit. Everyone was on time and we loaded up onto the bus and were on our way to the private hanger for our flight to Churchill.
Upon arrival we see ...
