Around the World in 15 Weeks [Monday, Period Three]
Like last week, Bond was wearing a fur coat when the class arrived at the Danger Shop, unlike last week he was wearing other clothing under it.
"Good morning, class," he said, before gesturing to a large collection of parkas, hats, scarves, gloves and other thermal wear. "Before we begin, I would advise all of you to dress extremely warmly."
When the students had dressed, Bond pressed a control and not only did an ice covered path leading to a city appear around them, but the temperature dropped severely. "Welcome to Yakutsk, capital of the Sakha Republic, and the coldest city on Earth. During the summer, it can be reached by ferry across the Lena river, and during the winter by driving over the frozen river." If anyone cared to take a closer look at the path, they would have seen that the path wasn't so much covered in ice. Bond really gave his class the best life experiences, didn't he?
Leading his class over the river, Bond continued to give a brief history of the city, which was far more expansive than could be found on the average wikipedia page. Eventually, he led them to a small bar on the outskirts of the city, where, while it was warmer then outside, was still cool enough that the class would probably want to keep their outer layers on. "We'll be spending the rest of the class absorbing the atmosphere," he explained. "Sampling some local cuisine, trying the kumis."
Bond was not going to explain what kumis was.
