This story is bringing back so many memories for me. The big question I still get all the time is "Isn't it like dark there all winter and light all summer?"
During school my favorite question was "Do you have a pet moose?" because at least for that one I could say "Yes, we had a neighborhood moose. It made getting rid of our Halloween pumpkins so much easier."
I did have one especially ignorant person ask if it was strange for me to see all of the people with different cultural backgrounds in CA (not quite their words, I believe they used the word colors) Um, just because I am blond, blue eyed and Day-glo does not mean that I represent the make up of the entire state, moron. In fact, coming from my HS it was strange for me to not see as many different groups as I was used to.
Great story! I can't wait to see where you end up.
