It turns out we were lucky about the black flies two days ago. One passenger got bit over 50 times. We continued our black fly luck yesterday. We saw a few, but they were lethargic and not biting. Paamiut is an Inuit town of about 1,000 residents. If you come, you will see that every building hosts several families. The bright colors indicate what the residents of that building do for a living. I don’t know what happens if the husband is a plumber and the wife a government official. I suspect everybody knows what they each do without the color coded residences. The buildings I saw housed several families. I did not see a stand-alone building all for just one family.

There’s not a lot to do. They decided not to open the museum. The church was having a funeral. It’s an interesting looking building.

The third thing to do is to go to the top of the rock and look over the entire town. The first picture came from the lookout. Getting to the overlook involves walking on a boardwalk that is part throughway and part private. One of the buildings I walked along has a resident that needs a wheel chair. The ramp they installed is not ADA compliant, but it does the job.

There are few more pics on the internet. To see them, click the photo link at the top of this message. One of them is an overlook of the bay, including our fog-enshrouded ship and a well known wreck.
