Dear Mum and Dad,
I am having a once-in-a-lifetime experience here on a trip to Canadian Shield. It offers a trailblazing distinctive portfolio from Great Lakes to the Arctic Ocean presenting one of the world's richest site of preserved mineral ores, bacteria/algae fossils over billion years old and Diamond discoveries in Northwest Territories.
On the first step of tour, we were inspired and behold by the spectacular Auroras envisioned in Aurora Village approximately 17 kilometers out of Yellowknife at midnight along with the world’s 10th largest freshwater Great Slave Lake glowing in the dark. There we had memoir group photos.
On last step of tour, we tackled the one of the world’s greatest whitewater Ottawa River’s extremely thrilling class V sport rafting through the majestic Canadian Shield rock formations. We found echoes of this historic route in the pictographs painted on the cliffs once crossed by First Nations people and European fur traders. Then at the end we enjoyed rustic camping, in Cedar wood cabins.
Wish you were here.
Love
