I'm in Yellowknife now, but I used to live in Inuvik, and I remember dropping everything to grab my parka and run up the hill for a better look at the sun.
Well, running up the hills here is a little hard .. and when it initially returned it was -48 outside, so no one really went out side to run to it. Other than the crazy person sitting here (hehe .. I went a running out to the sun, got my pictures and went running right back inside as it was freaking cold).
Surprisingly, most of the kids say "ohh.. too bright!"
After spending six years living and teaching in the Canadian Arctic (Nunavut and Yukon), I returned to the Maritimes to work at my Alma Mater, The University of New Brunswick, as the Media Lab Supervisor with the Centre for Enhanced Teaching and Learning. At the Media Lab I help faculty and students learn how to use instructional and media technology in their classes and projects.

And you thought it would be just another ordinary event!!
it was pretty much an ordinary event. ...
Did everyone in town run outside to look at it?
