Today was a slow day... we are still in the waiting place. Although some good news has arrived, we will likely be in Pevek several more days. Arrangements have been made for some of the equipment that is needed down at the lake to be flown in from the USA and other parts of Russia. Until all the material arrives, we continue to wait. After our 4 pm dinner, we were planning to walk back to the Roshydromet station. Since the weather took a turn for the worse, we decided that walking 4 km home was not a good idea. In spite of the wind and snow, several of us went to the magazine(grocery store) to purchase some necessities.

This walk was a good test for our cold weather gear. I am looking forward to tomorrow, as I will be going to school. I have been invited to speak to students at the Pevek School. Expect a full report about the school visit in tomorrow's journal.
Finally, I will leave you with the first image in a series... it has been six days without shaving!
