I'll start from where I left off. Last night Katie picked me and Maggie up and we headed down the Seward highway to Seward. This is rated one of the most scenic drives in North America and that is not an exaggeration. We saw a flock of eagles, and drove through huge snow capped mountains on either side. it was a cloudless night so we were able to see everything clearly.

We have a nice two bedroom apartment with three of us right now. All the windows show awesome views of mountains and trees.
Today was the first day of orientation! we got a tour through the sealife center and went through all the safety mumbo jumbo. We then met up with our supervisor for the actually marine mammal stranding position. Every morning before entering the facility we have to change out of our shoes into the xtra tuff waterproof boots. Not only because it gets super messy, but also to keep contaminants out. Same goes for if we leave the facility and have to enter the building we have to completely shower and wash our hair before entering the building.
As we entered the rehab room we saw the facilities only patient, a one month old sea otte. completely adorable. by the end ofb the day i had held it and even bottle fed it. it was such an amazing thing and it was so soft. its not so busy at the center now but in summer we will have lots of animals to take care of. we learned how to mix formulas and soon we will learn how to tube feed and draw blood. its getting late here and i have no internet so im on my phone. until next time.
