Yellowknife
| After 23 hours in (or around) the bus, I arrived in Yellowknife tuesday night. The drive there wasn't too bad, though the endless berches along the way do get a bit boring in the end. However, nearer to Yellowknife the road began to become more interesting. Not only did the landscape become rougher with more rocks, but also the ferry crossing over the Mackenzie River was quite spectacular. Large chuncks of ice floating aroud, and the ferry ploughing through them... Nice! A bit further up North, we drove past Meckenzie Bison Sanctuary. That area is apperantly not called like that for nothing, as we saw several of these impressive beasts along the road. The nearer I got to Yellowknife, the more nervous I got. However, when I arrived in town, Roslyn was there to pick me up from the busstop, so all was good with the world ^_^ We drove around town a bit, and stayed up late and talked. Not that you noted that it was getting late, as it did not get really dark. One of the advantages of summer here in the North... |
