Arrived

Both the Polar 5 aircraft and the crew have arrived in Inuvik. As you can see in the pictures, we have snow again! From Yellowknife to Inuvik you fly along the Mackenzie River, which is still ice-covered, just like the thousands of lake that speckle the Canadian landscape. We have settled in the Aurora Research Institute's dwellings, and their office buidling is very nice and modern with a well-equipped conference room. Their staff is really nice and very helpful. The main road is ice-free, and we start to find our way around town.
