To Whet Your Appetite

Taking photos is probably my favourite part of any trip.  Unfortunately, by the time we took care of some very sick patients, finished up our paperwork, and said our goodbyes, I was left with only about 15 minutes to take photos before leaving Nunavut this morning.  Which probably wasn't a bad thing, because even after putting on every warm piece of clothing I had brought with me, I could still feel my skin freezing as I tore through the town trying to photograph everything in sight.  I will get around to doing a real post with more photos and some descriptions, but in the meantime I thought I'd share a couple of my favourite photos from today to give you a sense of where I've been this week.

My time in Nunavut was stressful and eye-opening and bitterly cold and magical and beautiful, all in one. 

I would do it again in a heartbeat.
