Canadian Whiskey and ice…un peu de glace dans mon whyskey

Ce qui est bien dans  le Nord, est que lorsque vous n’avez plus de glace pour un verre de Canadian Club, qui était le ‘drink’ passe partout là bas….et comme l’eau potable était rationnée à la station, on allait à notre Iceberg favori, tout juste au coin du fjord pour aller se servir, donc cette fois ci on était une expédition de 3, je suis sur la photo, l’ombre en bas à gauche qui tient, enfin on le devine plus qu’on ne le voit l’appareil-photo…

A good thing about the North is that you don’t have to go far to get some ice for your Canadian Club rye whyskey…and since the drinking water was precious and had to be conserved until late may when the snow start melting, we were contributing to the effort to rationalize the water consumption…:) so I was part of this 3 members team that went that day for the chipping of our finest ice cube for our whiskey…I am the shadow holding, you have to guess it, the camera…

Humains , droit devant, arrière toute….si les iceberg sont dotés de conscience, c’est probablement ce qu’ils diraient.. Humans, right ahead!! if iceberg are alive probably what they would say…

Et contrairement aux marins et passagers infortunés, nous on était bien content de l’aborder ce iceberg / And unlike those unfortunate seamens and passagers that perish after meeting an iceberg, us we were just happy to jump on it…

    • It was…I guess I did not realized until later how lucky I was to have a chance to go up there, but after four years I had too much I think, there was really great enjoyable moments, camaraderie, but also it is a hard job to do, always moving between stations, getting your crews to do the job, I wonder what would have happen If I had kept that job and life…
