In my trip around Canada i visited Halifax, Montreal and Edmonton and know it is time to see what Yellowknife has to offer.


So we arrive and i was expecting it to be some old school village but it is actually a city with hotels, amusement parks, museums and burger kings. We got to Yellowknife at around 11:30 and it took us a while to find a hotel because my dad didn't want to waste to much money on hotels he said the less we spend on a hotel the more we spend on other things and when we found one he was happy with we had breakfast at Embleton House Bed and Breakfast but we were eating i saw a computer and i wanted to check my facebook so i said i was going to the bathroom and went to the computer but i had to pay 2 dollars to use it and i didn, have any money on me so i just went back to the table and found them deciding were we were going to go, they all wanted to go to Aurora village and i didn't really have a choice if but it was ok because it was actually pretty sick i just went straight to the sliding hill and o baby it was awesome it was scary at first but then it was just amazing i spent the rest of the day there then before we left the light filled with lights at first i thought it was something like fireworks but then some guy said the were arctic lights and then we ate at Leisure Café and went home for the night.



















On the second day we woke up a little late at around 11:30 but we still had a day to go and we started it of by going to Embleton House Bed and Breakfast again and boy did we eat we stayed there for 45 minutes stuffing our face but after we were done we went to Yellowknife Outdoor Adventures witch is a tour of the outdoors of Yellowknife and it was awesome our tour guide was carols and he made us feel like we were experts at pike fishing and a whole load of other things, after the tour we stayed around and went for another round of pike fishing , we spent the rest of the day on the water then we went to burger king and went home.










That was my trip in Yellowknife there is still one more city on the trip and that is Vancouver thank you for reading have a good day.
