So today was the first official day at work and I'm so sleepy! We woke up and went to work, walked all 2 mins to get there. I can see where I work from my window! The day seemed pretty normal, started with orientations at the hospital, all the tests and even was screened for drugs! But yesterday I was out and about the town finding out what the locals do for fun and I found some neat things! Here are some pics of the town.
| So this is one of the original signs built in the early 1900s that marks the beginning of a gold mining trail! |
| There is still snow along the beach! |
| More of the ice cap! |
| The biggest sled dog race in Alaska and Nome is the finish line! |
| The local grocery store... food is so expensive, I miss drinking milk all the time but it $8 for a gallon! CRAZY!!! |
| Some original wooden boats that were never finished that would have been used for fishing! |
| The hand-crafted wooden finish line for the sled race! |
| A view down Front St. It really looks like your in a western film! |
| A really cute sign on one of the local bars here in Nome. |
