Quiet Week




Sorry blog followers- this has been a pretty quiet week, but then I really needed it! I made a quick trip to the village of Kongiginak. My favorite 2 things about the village of Kong: 1- the runway is right next to the school (thus I never have to worry about getting left on the airstrip or missing a plane!) and 2- the Russian Orthodox Church. This is one of the two main religions you will see represented in the tundra villages (the other is Catholic).I have not been able to see inside the church, but I am quite intrigued with the "onion domes". Keep posted, Kathy and I may try to attend a Russian Orthodox during this trip.
