The original plan was to leave on Saturday and stay one night at the lodge in Iqaluit but alas, the northern weather betrayed us! We had to stay the weekend due to the lack of an airplane! The plane was unable to land because of the foggy weather and high winds. So we, the youth team, spent the weekend with our respective host families and were able to walk the town of Clyde River without all of the excitement over the Steger expedition.
We are extremely grateful to our host families for extending their generosity for an even longer stay!
The weekend passed relatively uneventfully and we were able to catch up on some sleep and homework {Allison}. Finally on Monday we were able to leave Clyde River and connect to Iqaluit. From Iqaluit we ran (literally) to our next flight to Ottawa, where we arrived at about 6 pm. After finding our hostel once again and going out for a good and hearty supper we turned in for the night.
Tomorrow we will be back in MN by 5 pm...our time in the north is almost up...
So until tomorrow,
Dalen out
