Hi,

Gilles est bien arrive hier soir, son avion avait meme une demie heure d’avance. Il a de la chance, le vent etait bien tombe ce qui etait bienvenu pour le transfert de ses bagages a bord en zodiac. La ville de Barrow pour vous en parler a connu de grands changements depuis le debut de l’exploitation du petrole a Prudhoe Bay. Le nombre d’habitants est passe de 400 a 4500. La manne petroliere a permis d’ameliorer les conditions de vie, la construction de belles infrastructures, ecoles, gymnase, bibliotheque et meme un tout a l’egout (rechauffe car enterre dans le permafrost). Il y a deux magasins, eglises, aeroport, plusieurs hotels et restaurants. On peche le saumon royal dans la lagune, les inuits sont restes chasseurs de baleines, morses, phoques, ours polaires?et caribous. Seul le climat n’a pas beaucoup varie, il y a 324 jours de gel par an en moyenne. Frileux s’abstenir! Demain nous partirons vers l’Est en mer de Beaufort. Si la glace ne nous?retarde pas trop nous ferons deux arrets avant Tuktoyaktuk, a Kaktovik (village) et l’ile Herschell (ancien lieu d’hivernage des baleiniers). A+ Thierry

Gilles is well arrived yesterday evening, his plane was thirty minuts sooner. He is lucky, the wind had seriously decreased and it was easier to bring his luggages on board by dinghy. The town of Barrow has known big changes with the oil exploitation in Prudhoe Bay. Population grows from 400 unhabitants to 4500. Oil money also gave a better way of life with schools, rec center, library and even a sewage system. Two stores, churches, airport, several hotels and restaurants. There is king salmon in the lagoon, inuits remains hunters of whales, walrus, seals, polar bears and cariboos. But the climate did’nt change, there is 324 freezing days per year. Tomorrow we’ll sail eastward in Beaufort sea. If we are not too slow with the ice we’ll stop twice before Tuktoyaktuk, at Kaktovik (village) and Herschell Island. Bye Thierry
