We made it!

Good morning!

Well after our much delayed ferry ride, we made it to Newfoundland!!!!! Hooray!!! And not in the Camry, in the Colonel!!! DOUBLE HOORAY!!!!


(Newfoundland is SPECTACULAR!!! Well worth all our hard work!!!)

Because the ferry got us in so late, we had a much later drive up to Gros Morne than we had hoped for. Driving at night is very dangerous in Newfoundland because there are SO many moose! Who knew that moose were actually nocturnal?! So we drove and drove and drove and drove and between patches of dense fog, prayed that the sun would stay out for just a LITTLE BIT longer and please don't let a moose jump out of the fog and into the Colonel!!! We spotted 3 moose, none of them the jumping into cars kind thankfully, but we stopped and politely let them pass.

We got to our KOA campsite just as it was getting more dark than we were comfortable with. It's a great site right on the lake, great facilities, very clean. It was great to have a shower and get our RV hooked up to electricity. We have steaks and baked potatoes on the menu for tonight! THIS is the type of camping I enjoy ;) Today we're going to go for a hike, take a lot of photos. We're going to go for a kayak through the bay one day, and take the ferry ride another. I'm hoping we can see some whales while we're out on the water! We're staying here until Sunday, and then who knows?!


(Mmmmm bbq-ed breakfast!!!)
