We’re here in Churchill now on Hudson’s Bay. We took the train up from Winnipeg. The trees got steadily shorter as we went North and now on the coast of the bay there’s just barren tundra. We were able to see the northern lights from the train as well as an arctic fox, I think.
It’s now officially quite cold (-33 C, -29 F)–have to bundle up from head to toe (including two facemasks) to be able go out, even then you don’t last long. Have some great pictures though of the town and the life here. Unfortunately we’ve missed the polar bear season–when they pass right by the town.

It’s been great to keep up with your adventures. Loved the photos. We are somehow surviving without you at the office.
