Hello again!
The previous post was written in Word and now that we are done today's presentations, time for some more updates! Check out the link above to see where we are...
Today's presentations were great! We presented to Science 8, 9, and got the opportunity to work with a Geography 12 class in the afternoon! All went very well, and we had some wonderful feedback - including many students who said they would like to go into scientific studies and engineering with the aim of solving the problems of climate change :) hooray!

Kate left us today after the morning presentations, and is now hopefully getting some rest on the ferry ride back to Port Hardy. Although we slept solidly last night, it takes a bit of practice to actually GET to sleep on a boat, so we're a bit short on our REM cycles. That problem is solved, at least for Jeremy and I, as we're now checked into our hotel for the evening and are planning out our trip to Prince George that (if we can make the time) include a stop at the Tseax volcano and Nisga'a Lava beds memorial site just out of the way between Terrace and Smithers. The volcano erupted violently in the 1700's and is the most recent eruption in Canada.
We plan to spend the night in Smithers, breaking the 8-9 hour drive up over the weekend and arriving in Prince George on Sunday night to pick up another awesome ACER from the airport who will replace Kate and join us for presentations in PG, Quesnel, and Kamloops. Word of our journey is spreading, and we are getting more classes booking us as we go!
Okay, time for a shower and then to scavange through the groceries for dinner before a good night's rest. Oh right, and uploading some pictures tonight!
