Feb 28 Our last day in Vancouver
We spent the morning and early afternoon at the Aboriginal Artisan Village again. The downtown core of Vancouver was crazy busy because of the gold metal hockey game that was on that afternoon. (We were all very excited when they won! Go Canada Go!) We left the trade show a little early because we needed to head back to residence to pack and get ready to catch our plane home.
Overall, we all had a fantastic time in Vancouver. The days were busy, overwhelming and tiring, and sometimes it was hard and uncomfortable to be outside of our element. But in the end, we only come home with great memories, real life learning experiences, and a once in a lifetime opportunity we will never forget!
A big NAKURMIIK and THANK YOU to Kakivak, the President and Dean of the Nunavut Arctic College, Lyn at Green College, Susan at the Museum of Anthropology, Ippik at Emily Carr, Madeline at UBC, Mark (for being so helpful around town!) and all the fun and interesting people we met who made us feel so welcome.
Here are a few more fun pictures from the trip. Enjoy!
