Westport Week 8-Goodbye!

During our last week at Westport, Lina joined Ioana in the finish carpentry crew, while Maggie stayed in the plumbing crew. Ioana and Lina worked together on assembling grids for overhead panels. Maggie continued to install piping systems in the 40-meter model. The three of us handed out our homemade cookies on Monday, and were glad to hear that everyone enjoyed them! On Tuesday, the day that Maggie and Ioana were to leave for their long drive back to Webb, Westport experienced an extremely unusual event: snow! Ioana and Maggie trying not to slip on their way into the yard During lunch, Maggie and Ioana said goodbye and began their trip. Lina was left to work the rest of the week alone before her flight back to New York. She continued to work on the carpentry project, and was really proud of how much she was able to accomplish on her own. Here's Lina chilling alone in the break room A couple of days into the week, Lina developed an allergic reaction at work...

Victoria!!!

During our stay in Port Angeles, we decided to make a day trip to Victoria, Canada. We took the Black Ball Ferry line on the MV Coho, which was a 90-minute trip. The shift from Washington's dreary clouds to Canada's sunny skies was seen immediately. Maggie's so excited!  We were impressed by the beautiful architecture, pleasant weather, and laid-back atmosphere in Victoria. We roamed the streets for hours and took a lot of pictures. We ate lunch in a restaurant in Canada's oldest Chinatown, and stopped for dessert at Chocolats Favoris, known for its ice cream covered in a hard shell of chocolate and extremely delectable toppings.  A statue in front of the Hotel Empress The Parliament Building  Ladies' selfie: Maggie, Ioana, Jenny, and Lina  Canada's oldest Chinatown Walking down Theatre Alley    Ioana treated herself to bubble tea...  ... and ice cream!  ...
