This weekend has been interesting. Friday I stopped at the library to pick up another disc in my series, The Unit. While I was there, I met a couple that were visiting Barrow. Barbora is from Czech Republic and Milan is from Slovakia. They were on a four month back packing trip from Vancouver. They had planned to visit Barrow, Anchorage, Cancun, Central America, Peru, New Zealand and return to Europe.
They were shocked by the temperatures and the snow. They hadn't planned on getting a hotel. They planned on a camping trip. Temperatures were too low to allow someone to safely camp outside.
We invited them to crash in our living room for two nights. We hiked all over town with them and introduced them to other teachers living in Barrow. It was a great time! We exchanged information and plan to keep in touch. I want to take the girls to Prague when they are older. Barbora and Milan want us to come stay with them. :)
What an adventure that would be!
