Home sweet home!!! I am loving life in the arctic...but let's be realistic.. I still am in the honeymoon phase! We'll see what happens over the next 10months!Today I had 2 social outtings...(wow I know...) I got a call at 10am... from my neighbour inviting me for brunch---mmmmm homemade waffles, bacon and eggs...(complete with whip cream--can it get any better?)...there was another family there as well... and 2 new borns to cuddle and hold, as well as a fun toddler to play with... it was a great morning, great food and great conversation!
I got home and was going to start to watch a movie...... but then got a call from my friend Beckie... wondering if I wanted to go for a walk on the ice with her and her dogs! I was all for that...(getting out in the sunshine!) I met her at her place and we headed to the ice!
the following are some snaps from the ice....it was such a gorgeous sunny day--although not being as 'physically' active since I broke my toe...well that has left me feeling a tad out of shape..but I figure if i walk every day.. or at least every other day...then I'll get back into shape I suppose.....
Posing it up in the nice parka.. that really is toooooo hot...but I'm sure I'll love it come December!! But am thinking of getting someone here to make me one--they are so colourful and pretty!!!!
A photo of my friend Beckie.....we were wondering where the heck the dogs had gotten to!
The Dogs checking out the water on top of the ice... they had SOOO much energy...but really are great dogs!!! (although I wouldn't want to be holding their leash!!!)
This is MY end of town...I live on the OTHER side of the bridge (where the 'fewer' houses are)...I must admit I have the best view!!!
When there's a high tide (once a month) even in the winter the water breaks through some of the cracks and floods the ice...which leaves really fun sparkling water that's a cool turquoisey colour....although it doesn't quite look like that in the photos!
This is the far edge of town....(not the side I live on)......
Have to luv walking with the sunshine in your face...coming back home was a bit more frosty and cold!! All in all it was a great 3 hour hike!!! I can see myself out there x-country skiing....well maybe not quite yet....but perhaps....;)
