Arrived in Chisasibi

I made it here!

I'll be at the school tomorrow to help the teachers (since they have a few ped. (PD) days before it's time for the kids to come!) 

They're supposed to start of Thursday, but there's events going on for Chisasibi's 30th birthday, so kids probably won't come to school, and I hear there's a good chance that the school will put it all back (because they can do that kind of thing here.)

The ride was two full days to Chisasibi.  First stop: Val D'or, 1:30 AM
second stop: Mike's house, Chisasibi!  8:45 PM
We unloaded, then found ourselves at his neighbour's place, with Phillippe and Linda. I worked with Phillippe a few days in the learning centre (for kids with mental disabilities) and they're both extremely friendly, hospitable people.  They've taught abroad in many places: Mali, Inuukjuak, Beijing and now here!



The ride was alright: long, but I enjoyed most of it.  Long drives are sometimes good for me since I have the inability to sit still for very long. Mike has a similar taste for music and an interesting life too.

I stayed at Mike's place the first night, then he took to another teacher's place where I'll be staying for about a week until she gets here. :)

Tonight I'm going to the Katimavik house, then there's a talent show, that I've already arranged to go see with some friends.

So I'm safe and happy!
