Wonderful Weekend

We had a plethora of adventures and activities that we were able to partake in this weekend during Piuraagiaqta!  Peter and Jess already wrote about most of them so I wanted to share a few pictures:

Cross Country Skiing: Jess and Katie's first time! (Friday)

(Saturday) Of course we had to take our photo by the famous whale bone!

The farthest north Mexican restaurant, Pepe's where we had a pancake breakfast.

Sticker shock in "AC."  One watermelon would cost $36.

Setting up for the Umiaq race (Photo Contest Entry #1).

Today's activity (Sunday): DOG SLEDDING!!! They are absolutely gorgeous dogs! 11 of them were on Geoff's team pulling us.  Note about Geoff: he went to the North Pole with Will Steger and it was on that trip that he learned to be a musher.  We also checked out the snow sculptures at the city hall and the rest of the day was left for lesson planning and doing work.  Tomorrow we have the day off but plan to visit the high school and the Heritage Center!  Hope you enjoyed the photos! -K
