So, the best schemes plans o' mice and men gang aft agley! To whit, we were all set to head to Iqaluit. Oops...blizzard warning...ONLY for Iqaluit! Weather was clear in the ENTIRE remainder of the territory yet Iqaluit got socked in. So. Our flight was first rescheduled as First Air has a plane go mechanical and our flight was diverted on a rescue mission. We were rebooked onto Air Inuit. By the time THEY were ready to head out, the blizzard had hit and we were stranded. So. Grr. But we are much more fortunate than many other towns. Some had only one shot at a flight and will not make it out at all. We are scheduled to leave at 10:00 this morning. To put things into perspective, even Dr. David Suzuki did not make it into Iqaluit.
So, I have my camera at the ready, and I'm all packed and ready to go. YAY!!!!!
TTFN, and I'll write from Iqaluit and the big Piliriqatigiiniq Conference! Oh, and I get to stay at the Frobisher with its fitness centre and movie theatre and restaurants and convenience store and BAR!!!! And I DO plan to raise a glass or two, LOL!
