Will this little town did not disappoint. Only 120 population and 14 children in the school average life expectancy 60 -65 years of age. Seal meat was drying. There as a tiny Lutheran church painted pale blue inside with two chandeliers and a ship hanging in-between. Not sure if the ship is always between two chandeliers but I was told the ship is traditional.
Lots of brightly colored houses, snowmobiles, and sleds. We walked over walkways and granite rocks to a lookout point where you could see the iceberg graveyard. With the blue water, colored houses, boats and icebergs in the harbor it was a pretty village.
There also many dogs, seems like every house had dogs. The dogs were on long chains but the puppies were roaming around. One of them just seemed happy to pose for us as much as we liked. There were also six puppies we estimated at two weeks old. So adorable!!
So I am being lazy this afternoon and decided not to go to the deserted town and coal mine. Ken went and he can tell me about it.
Not sure if he will get to post pictures internet has been off since yesterday morning and now it seems we have a signal but it is still cutting in and out. I was able to post as you know and I will try and post this as well.
Looking forward to hearing our ice update. As of yesterday 9/10th of the passage is blocked. Maybe we can creep through on the 1 /10th? Let’s hope for better news tonight.
