In Greenland everyone hangs out their laundry, even during snowstorms…we are in Sisimiut, on the coast and here there is a year round harbor. The big employer is Royal Greenland they process shrimp and halibut but the cod is scarce. Today we heard about a trade school where people can learn construction. There were 59 students, 10 graduates and 17 drop outs. Apparently making the students travel to Copenhagen for part of their studies turns many of the locals off.
This is bustling little town of 5000, people walking every where, and there are huge hills slick with snowfall. We learned that there is a plan to build gasp, a road all the way to the airport. This would be a major feat, as today there are no roads at all between towns.
