I've been in Unalaska for five days.
You buy internet access the way you used to buy phone cards for long distance calls. There are wild orchids growing in the tundra, and so many humpback whales offshore that they've created a traffic hazard while drivers slow down to look.
We've been working all weekend on coverage for the 75th anniversary of the bombing of Dutch Harbor, and evacuation and internment of the Ungangax people from the islands.
Updates will probably be slower while I'm here. But the view walking home isn't bad.
