FISHINGG !!








When we arrived at Great Slave Lake, I was surprised because of how beautiful the lake looks! At first I thought it would be just a lake like Lake Ontario but it was completely different. I did some research before and the lake was named for the Slavery North American Indians and it is the deepest lake in North America ! It has a depth of 613 meters and it is the second largest lake in Northwest Territories and in the winter when it is frozen, it is large enough for trucks to pass over it !

We went on a small boat and fished for about 2 hours and I caught a lot of fish ! We caught some Lake Trout, Walleyes and some fish I have no idea what they are called. I guess we have fish for dinner tonight! Later, I heard my parents saying that we are going to camp near the lake tonight and then go hiking tomorrow and after that, CRUISE!

Later on at night, it was quite a scene especially when we drove around and gathered together with our tourist to see the northern lights. It was a dark sky with green lights in the sky with a tint of pink and yellow. It was amazing and I wished tonight never ended !
