Landed in Toronto with Air Canada with immediate connection to Winnipeg Manitoba.è in winter and cold, Winnipeg is famous for its minus 20 for the whole winter, in fact there is a city with the skyscrapers in the hot shops, where you can walking in shirt, all those who work in offices above the skyscrapers down the elevator with them directly.
The free shuttle bus to take us to the terminal of Air Canada and brings us a 80 hour driving on icy road, but as it does? then discover that the tires had nails.
We are a night and take us some time by orario.L 'hotel has an indoor swimming pool with a slide, and I Donato in the blink of an eye we are all dentro.Non swim in the pool with out below zero
The next morning the van takes us to the airport free of charge but soon discover Arriving at the Air Canada plane that our starting quell'aeroporto, but that the terminal is located on the opposite side of the airport, so we are already automatically late.
Take a taxi and we shot over there.
The plane for a four-helix of 45 years is there awaiting us, but .... other problem, say the plane was all booked by a group, What a shock.
At the end with a ticket in hand with date en ° flight matches, had to admit that not qual'cosa went and saw that there were 2 people on board, we have brought them up. less evil.
During the flight we make friends with a group of ladies who watch case is an Italian descendant who has given us some of what to do straight to Churchill, from the plane window, we see the big white circles on the ground, are the hundreds of frozen lakes, Churchill strangely connected only by air and by train, no roads, just like the cpitale of Alaska Juneau. not having ways to go, has no car theft and crime in general, no escape routes.
Churchill landed in after more than 3 hours of flight, fortunately there is the sun, just off the plane shooting photo go to go to everything, of course, continued to film, this video is also on youtube the word daniele Somenzi, A van takes us into the country, we are the only ones on board, the group climbed on a bus the whole book. ask the type of lead in a hotel that costs little, and leads us.
We enter the room and the lady tells us that is all but full call here and there for aitarci to find a place at the end is a guest house, a house of a lady who says she knows and $ 100 Canadian at the end understand that 100 had a head but we can for a "we have not understood" to pay only 100 in 2, fair enough.
However, these past 2 days the ice has been very intense, It spreads the voice that we would like to see the bears as the white lady with his car takes us a while to walk around town and see a polar fox not that many signs indicating the limit of danger to the white bears, which often see them walking in the city as if nothing had happened, then comes into action the polar beear police who falls asleep and then transports them to the van that all'elicottero with a net hanging them to fly for tens and tens of km where issuing free.
As soon as we conclude the brief tour, we visit in the Snow station where the train that leaves tomorrow morning for Winnipeg, takes 2 days, it was a good experience, not having sinned first thought, after the Trans Darwin and Alice Springs.
A gentleman on board a bus, we called you but you are not the ones who want to see the bear? tells us the
Canadian port we will climb, he says. with the radio and advised him here is a White Bear walking like a biricchino searching for food in that of Churchill. we were very excited and happy, a photo gust was 30 meters from us.
Donato sees the evening in the dark for the first time in his life The Northern Lights. A woman had called the lady of the house where we were guests and said that the aurora was out. the excitement Donato was put out without the jacket, but the show was so great that even if there were -15 remained outside to freeze, I have enough 5 minutes.
The lady had 3 cats at home and on top in the bedroom even a rabbit, and that was the widow of + husbands, Donato and I assumed that she was a witch and that cats and rabbits were her husbands processed.
The day we walk to minus 15 dresses well and see the helicopters that carry tourists in the tundra where they sleep in boongalow for a night. An excellent opportunity to spot bears closely.
We see the giant bus aluminum wheels with high 3 meters for tourists who bears sight, only the top six being protected by them.
In nearby Hudson Bay, the narwhal is sight often have a long tip on the nose and sometimes prey on seals along the white bears.
We booked a tour, climb aboard an American school bus type and lead us in the snowy forest of conifers, Li is mounted a curtain type first gold-diggers with a wood stove inside. On the bus can be seen a rifle sight, the danger of white bears. Go up on the sledge by Husky, to Donato was the first time I had already been in alaska, very good slide on the snow with no noise. strangely silent for the dogs when we are still continuing to bark, while all parties just quietly turning a magical atmosphere.
The return of this fantastic dogsled tour, we also do one km on board the snowmobile shift before me and then Donato, so we have completed the program.
Returned to Churchill, it is time to return to the airport by taxi, Mr., 2 days to never forget, an experience full of shots of the scene. The flight takes us back in the dark in Winnipeg. And stay in the same hotel that we think that it is life and not to those who prefer to spend the same amount of money to get the doses of drugs.
