Cruising Iqaluit


On Sunday morning we took the dogs for a drive over to the old runway on one of our scavenging outings. As we looked down the inlet we spotted a big ship in the distance so we drove over to the causeway to check it out.


Tourists in red jackets were ferried from the cruise ship to land where they boarded the yellow school bus which deposited them around town.


We spotted a herd in Sylvia Grinnell park where Johnny made a girl cry by following her around because she had a sandwich.


I found this bunch looking nervous by the visitors centre which is located down in our part of town.

 

This nifty covered vessel brought all the bags to the breakwater where they were thrown about by cruise company staff.


Our visitors flew out and another group flew in to take the cruise in the opposite direction. I believe it is an 11 day itinerary from Boston to Iqaluit and vice versa. Too bad the weather wasn't a bit nicer, there was a cold wind blowing all day.
