Kuujjuaq

August 2, 2018

An early morning wakeup and then drove from Sharon's house in Calgary to Discount to drop off the rental car at 03:30. Walked across the street to a hotel and called a taxi. Had a smooth flight to Montreal, and then hopped on a First Air flight with twelve other people in a 737 with the front half filled with cargo. A pleasant flight with good food and freely flowing wine made for a bit of party atmosphere. Everyone was friendly and one woman on the flight thought that I was someone named Ed that she met some time before. I told her she could call me Ed if she wanted too. Deb and Paul awaited at the Kuujjuaq airport for my landing and we walked over to the hotel together. Had a beer at the bar and made a sort-of dinner with some items from the lobby fridge along with a basket of potato chips served with the drinks. I spent some time repacking my bags as I was transitioning from one mountaineering trip to another, and finally went back to the bar for another beer before bed.

Town of the Kuuj.


Interesting mural.
