So far, this week has been pretty slow and tedious, but welcomed after our busy week for orientation. The end of Thursday we said our goodbyes to those who would be spending their summers in different communities. We ended the week with a nice, home-cooked meal by a few of the interns and a night of singing in remembrance of Michael Jackson. Friday we were back to work; planning our trip to the southern coast of Newfoundland and the kids camp. The weekend entailed sleeping, relaxing and a few visits from the local children. On Monday, we were graced by very rare sunshine and warm weather (probably warmer than Boston from what I’ve heard). To celebrate, we took our tasks outside and spent the majority of the afternoon working on the back deck. We were then treated to a fresh lobster dinner caught just that morning a few towns over. Tuesday was another beautiful day for working outside. We spent the day working out the final details of our trip next week and calling some of our marine species observers. Wednesday was Canada day. On our day off we spent our time soaking up the sun while it still lasted and helping some of the women in town set up for the celebrations. We then made our own Canada Day cake and enjoyed a visit and some football with the local children.
Next week and a half"ish" we'll be in Newfoundland!
