We Made It!

This is a short note to let everyone know that we made it -- along with our load of boxes!  There was one casualty, Jim has not seen his luggage yet...  We are still hopeful he will see it tomorrow, but that leaves him without his winter gear.  Good thing he is a tough Prairie boy!  The class will be quite close to our hotel.  Truly walking distance, but also a $6 cab ride away.  Everywhere in Iqaluit is $6 per person...

Jamesee and Liz met us at the airport and drove us into town (5 minutes), and helped us unload our boxes into the classroom.

The classroom is an oversized boardroom with nice big chairs and it's fully equipped with all the technology we will need.

Here are a few pictures...  1st picture:  Jim and Steve with our treasured boxes at 11pm last night in Toronto.  Notice Jim's jean jacket -- that's what he'll be wearing until he gets his luggage or gives in and buys some big winter parka up here.  I hope the luggage comes...  2nd picture:  The view from my hotel room window at 4pm, just about dark...
