Last day visiting the north and it was fantastic!

We went out on the tundra buggies and rubbed Rocky (the bear mascot) for good luck as driver Dylan told us to do the last day we were there. It worked like a charm!

We view multiple bears today. One was a momma and a cub who were very much in sync together. We watched multiple boys who were either sleeping or trudging along. Two of them went to the water’s edge looking for food. We saw one stay at a spot for a long time and when he raised his head, blood was on its due. Our directors thought he was eating probably a seal because it was a red residue. We viewed another one that they had named Anne. She was laying in the sun on a rock looking quite angelic. Connie got a fabulous shot of her rolling on her back.

Ice break up was 125 days ago so these bears haven’t eaten since then. Our leaders were very careful not to agitate them. The “explore.org” buggy was around doing their live feed of the bears.

We had a fabulous trip and met some wonderful people.

Leader: Duane Collins from Newfoundland. Runs his own tour company in NFLD and does this for 2 months in the fall.

Buggy driver Dylan.

Dave and Bev Fleming from Pennsylvania. They run a winery there. Quiet and super kind couple.

George and Sally Leonhardt from Pennsylvania and Florida. We had a lot of fun teasing George.

Jeff, Diana, and Michelle Wong from HongKong, Uk and Australia. Family that has lived in multiple countries. Super fun!

Connie. We were the ying and yang again! It was perfect!
