Spring is in the air..

The temperature is warming up and we are now enjoying spending more time outside sledding and playing in the snow- mostly Nicolas!  His favourite game is now 'Arctic Soccer' where there are little snow soccer balls everywhere he looks!  Another fun afternoon activity is walking out onto the frozen bay and watching the snowmobiles travel along the bay.

Our experiences in the Arctic have been captured in articles in La Nacion- Revista Dominical and Soho  magazine. Which emphasize the difference in living in an environment like the Arctic compared to the tropics of Costa Rica. The article in Soho magazine was particularly interesting as it depicted the experiences of two Costa Ricans in the poles (Arctic and Antarctic).

The true sign that spring is here and that we are coming out of the brutal winter cold… the dogs are sunbathing!!  Can't wait until the spring festival 'Frolics' begins in a few weeks.

Enjoying the spring weather
