Travelling through Canada

When I have a hard time fitting half of my expedition supplies into one car, I wonder how I will manage to drag twice this for 60 days. A week in NY gave me the opportunity to scour the shops for the newest gear and best food. Like a magpie I gathered shiny and clever gadgets, tiny tools and super strong adhesives. I left not a moment too soon or I would have had to drag a tanker to the pole!
Besides expanding my bags and waist line preparations in NY were a success. I even got to play at the range with a retired NYC police man who helped me hone my sharpshooping skills. I imagined a large Polar bear advancing instead of this gun touting thug and now go with renewed confidence but hopeful not to have such encounters… although a gun touting thug may even be welcome sight after so long on my own.
As I board my last commercial flight to the most northern outpost of Canada, Resolute Bay where the temperature is now a balmy -38C, we are warned that landing is subject to meteorological conditions!

Robert says: Fantozzi recommends double tapping any polar bear that gets too close!
Waiting to hear whether or not you were able to land in Resolute Bay. Had a wonderful time with you in beautiful Bridgeport and miss you already.
Guess I’m going to have to learn centigrade conversions! Love you, Roberta
