Hello Newfoundland

Farewell to New Brunswick and Nova Scotia … that time went quickly. Four nights in the former, and only two in the latter. The curse of the impromptu reservation made two weeks ago. Our pace will be much slower on the return.

Still I have enormous expectations for Newfoundland. It feels like we are embarking upon travel to a foreign land. The frisson of boarding the ferry — with all its attendant waiting and queues, the safety video, and the disjointed sleep of the passengers. The crossing time from Nova Scotia to the Rock is about the same as a transatlantic flight, adding to that sense of adventure.

So this upcoming Saturday (tomorrow) promises to be both the day of the dead as we negotiate a full day on a few winks of sleep, and the excitement of a travelling through a province whose reputation is as big and friendly as the people who inhabit it.
