Today was our last day at the lovely Biostation in Bol'shie Koty. And
of course this trip would not be a full Wellesley College experience if
on our last day we were not frantically working to finish the write-up
of the field problem, due right before lunch. Why lunch time? I don't
know, maybe so that our hunger would motivate us to finish quicker.
However, that did not hinder our ability to make the final rounds of the
village, so that we could admire the lovely okna, which are finely
decorated windows used in Russian homes to protect the house from
spirits. Other students chose indulge in other activities to prepare for
their departure, such as a dip in the lake or a hike; however, I chose
to stay dry. With that we say farewell to the Amazing village of
Bol'shie Koty.
Love Always, Yuby
