So I know I've been a very bad blogger this week and apologize for having not posted anything this week. I had not one, but two Praxis tests Saturday and have been spending every spare minute cramming every little tidbit of knowledge my brain will hold. Fortunately, I am not finished and can kick my feet up to relax and enjoy the amazing view from our cabin.
The week has had some noteworthy activities and events beyond my studying. We got to see the Northern Lights for the first time ever on Wednesday night. I peeked Thursday night to see if they were any better for the Solar storm, but looked too soon and missed them. I hear they were spectacular, but I was already asleep in bed when they began their dance across the sky.
I'm not sure if they came out last night as the weather was less than cooperative. We were scheduled to fly out at 3:30, but the airport called a little before 11:30 and said if we really needed to get out we had better get out on that flight. Since the testing session began at 7:30am and the first flight doesn't leave the village until 8:30 there was no opportunity for a second chance this morning so we took the flight. The weather looked descent from the school, but the flight left no room for doubt about their decision. It was windy and pouring snow, but our pilot is very good at what he does so the trip wasn't too bad. Rafael had to take his Praxis I and was hoping to get back this afternoon, but Nanwalek is currently experiencing a white-out so he may be spending the night in Homer.
