Hello Canada

12 August 2011 | Lancaster Sound, Canada
Katherine
The morning brought our first sighting of Canada. The snow covered peaks (the Byam Martin Mountains) of Bylot Island could be seen while we were still 60nm away! The day remained sunny with flat seas, clear skies and scattered icebergs but unfortunately the breeze dropped out around noon. We are currently in Lancaster Sound between Bylot Island and Devon Island heading west. Bylot Island looks amazing and I'm keen to read about Tilmans adventure across it in 1963 (keen to explore the island too!). The full looking moon has just appeared above the island and in the stunning evening light it is spectacular sight. Since entering the Sound we have seen quite a lot of seals swimming about or lying on icebergs and many seabirds. This makes a change from Greenland where we didn't see that much wildlife at all (except in the restaurants and shops).
