Well, Professor Lynnea is finally here! She arrived last evening about 7:30 and took a taxi here to the dorm. We gave her a short tour and the boys brought her luggage down to her room. We stayed up catching up and making observations about Barrow, etc. Then this morning she headed off to meet with someone at the Wellness Center in town. When she returned we ate lunch in the dorm and then took a trip into town. We went through the Inupiat Heritage Center which included a lot about the whaling culture and subsistence way of life. After that we walked to Tuzzy Library. It's a pretty beautiful library for such a small town. Then we HAD to go to AC and introduce her to the exorbitant prices of foods.......It's been so nice to have a familiar face here! People have been very welcoming as usual. It's nice to correspond about things in person without the delays of bad Internet and emails! Tomorrow we plan to go out to dinner and drink soda! Time to hit the town.....stay tuned! ;)
