Today we get up and leave the lodge very early, heading to the Northen Studies Centre and then back to Churchill. The sunrise at 8:00am is spectacular.

 

A buggy crosses a pond and soon our buggy will do the same.

Churchill, Manitoba Churchill railway station
Today is a beautiful sunny day, with no wind and without a single cloud in the sky. I continue to take pictures of the typical streets and homes of Churchill, the railway station,, before heading back to the airport for the evening flight to Winnipeg and say goodbye to this wonderful northen frontier.
