Hello, this is a remote blogger, writing from Wellesley, MA, to report that I’ve just heard from Tom Hodge via satellite phone that everything is going great for the Baikal group. They are having trouble getting the cell phone to work so they can post their own photos and text on the blog. While they’re working on that, I have been deputized to give you a quick report. All facets of the trip are going smoothly. Everyone is happy and healthy and settling into the village of Bol’Shie Koty, which will be their home base from now on. The weather is gorgeous and they were even greeted by some of the famous freshwater seals of Lake Baikal upon arriving at the village. They begin their experiments on Wednesday 8/3. All are having a great time and they will begin their posts just as soon as they can.
