Canada Day

July 1st was the last day of our Newfoundland holiday. We both jumped back into work when we arrived home so I never finished the blog. We stayed our last night in Gros Morne at the styling barn. Our flight home from Deer Lake wasn't until 2 pm. Deer Lake is about an hour from Gros Morne so we had no rush. Tuesday was Canada day so things were pretty quiet and we had one last opportunity to drive through and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Gros Morne. July 1 is Canada Day our National birthday. It was appropriate as flying home from Deer Falls to Edmonton is pretty well flying across the entire width of Canada without British Colombia. 2.5 hours to Toronto, a 2.5 hour lay over in TO and a 4 hour flight to Edmonton. It was a long day but everything went smoothly. No travel delays. Edmonton when we arrived home seemed like the garden of Eden compared to Newfoundland. We both really enjoyed our trip and would highly recommend everyone take at least one trip to the Rock aka Newfoundland. We were blessed by incredible weather and we were able to check the travel trinity of penguins, icebergs and whales off our bucket list. Two and a half weeks was perfect. If one had wanted to travel up to St Anthony I think we would have required at least 3 more days. Of all the places we visited I think I enjoyed Fogo island the most.Read more
