Today I have finally arrived in the Northern Territories, specifically, the city of Whitehorse.
The trip was relatively short today, so I stopped off a few times to see the sights. I saw quite a few small bears which is slightly terrifying, but the small shop I stopped at to grab a coke also happened to be a museum which had stuffed bears, and the ones I saw were definitely just babies compared to the ones they had on display.
My favourite display was one where two animals had gotten their antlers stuck together and had died from exhaustion in a failed fight.
One of my favourite things was just on the side of the road. People had collected stones and written things in the slopes. I was happy to just watch them as I passed until I saw one the had "KENT 07" and I couldn't help but add a "16" to show I was there too.
I'm here hoping so see the Aurora Borealis. Both tonight and tomorrow night have a chance of seeing them, despite it being so late in the season. I am super hopeful, but not really expecting much.
Tomorrow, hopefully sleeping in after a long night of northern lights xx
