Fisherman’s Bay


Sept 1, 2012

Our day started at 11am when John picked Ashley, Cassandra, Linda and I up for an afternoon road trip to Fisherman’s Bay. John just bought a pickup truck and loves fishing so he wanted to take us girls on a fishing trip. Fisherman’s Bay is about an hour north from Hall Beach. It was a bumpy ride and I definitely felt the motion sickness kicking in at times, but the trip there made me think more that we were in the middle of nowhere. 


(A historic landmark in Nunavut. This might be hard to believe, but this use to be an Inuit shelter hundreds of years ago)



(found a walrus skull)

Unfortunately, when we got to Fisherman’s Bay, there were no fish caught and it was definitely cold and windy as it rain all day. Either way, still a good getaway away from school. Did I mention we even got a chance to shot guns? John and Linda being hunters, John brought he shotgun and gave us a chance to try it out. Of course we didn’t shoot anything, but it was still lots of fun firing a gun for the first time. Now Gareth and I can go shooting together lol
