HERE WE GO!
Tuesday, June 30, 2009
We arrived in Wakkanai 2 days ago to grey skies and weather that was much colder than we had anticpated! The stilts arrived safely and produced a few surprised looks as we passed through the hoards of tour groups waiting outside the terminal. " Are you going to walk up to the top of Reshiri Island?" "Where are you going to go on those?" Or our favourite, "I used to make my own stilts just like that when I was a boy. I could walk all the way to school on them." If only he knew where they are going to take us from tomorrow. We parted with smiles wishing that we too only had as far as the local school in front of us!
Thew reception has been good so we will try and keep in touh as we go along! Must go and do my face! The papers are meeting us tomorrow for the first day!
Wish us luck everyone!!

Hope the winds have died down, the bears have been slow and the stilts are holding up.
and you still have some food to eat.
Let us know where you guys are and how you're getting on!
