As seal was being barbecued on rocks suspended over tiny fires, I noticed children gathered around a couple of tiny tidepools.
I ventured over for a closer look. They were most intent on what they were doing and they were catching something. I did not know what.
A boy prepares to place his catch in a cup while a little girl peers into the pool in search of hers.
She thrusts her hand into the water and catches it.
Now she goes for the cup to place it in.
Everyone is interested.
A boy also makes a successful catch. What are these little creatures?
H'mmm... looks like baby shrimp to me.
Whatever, they are a source of endless fascination.
Now, I have spent the past week in a state of exhaustion beyond all reason and I haven't pulled out of it yet, but I will see if I can finally catch up a bit on my Greenland work and finish this series off. I will never get it all in here, but ICC Alaska is looking for funds to enable us to make a little magazine-style book on the General Assembly, so I trust it will all come together in the end.
