Where's Newfoundland.... ??

... on deck 5, you can actually see the waves coming across our window. We're trying to eat through the sea sick feeling, but Laura has retired to the cabin! Writing this email, i'm in the worst part of the ship, near to the crow's nest at the front... maximum movement!
We're approx 100 miles east of Newfoundland now... probably quite close to the Titanic again (although trying not to think about that!)
Over and out for now...

The Friendship Destination.

... were telling me the "must see" places.

I decide that hiking with my new friends is the better option. I am constantly seeing new places. Seeing these places in Newfoundland might be new experiences but cultivating people relationships is just as important.

And so, that was what I did today.

A beautiful, sunny, extremely windy day hiking the east coast trail with Michael, Elena and Micha and then supper in a small town ...

TCH...west to east...DONE!

... of the Avalon Peninsula that I want to tour is much further away. My original campground chosen was in Holyrood, more centrally located, about a half hour west.

I set the trailer up in the overflow area. Basically a gravel parking lot. No electricity, no water, no sewer, no computer, no microwave, no HEAT! It's cold out. Weather forecast of near freezing temperatures tonight.

Can't do much in the trailer, might as well go for ...

Friends and Icebergs

Linda prepared us the best breakfast we've had in a LONG time (and I think Larry helped!) After seeing Larry off for work, Dennis took the motorhome into St. John's for an oil change, while the kids continued playing their games and getting to know one another. Anna and Simone were especially pleased to see a piano and get to play for the first time in over a month! Sandra and Linda visited and exchanged ...

... staff). I made it into the KOA campground shortly after midday, although it felt like forever (I think it had a lot to do with the fact I was right buggered from the previous night!). That night I had a relatively easy night at the campsite and didn't do a whole lot there. From the recommendations of the Hudson's and the visitor information centre I decided that the following day I would go on the search for Vikings. At the tip of Newfoundland ...

The Crows Nest and Newfoundland Railway Museum

Welcome one and all to another riveting episode of "Cal's BIG ADVENTURE". This week, we will go and visit the world famous "Crows Nest - Officers pub", pay a visit to the St John's Railway Museum, and walk out to the Queens Battery and stand on top of Cabot Tower. First things first, with this episode I am going to attach photos that both Clarice and myself took, and there are around 100 of them so please beer with me ...

Who will take us in?

... pleading messages on the machines and take a stroll, hoping that somebody will come home soon. Back on the bike, we cruise aimlessly, which really annoys me. I only have 4 days here; I want to SEE something! We stop at a grocery store to do some more phoning and get the address of a motorcycle shop. Unfortunately, it is closed. We reach the sister of a good friend of mine, but she is having a big party that night, and is very apologetic that it's not a good time. Rain is starting to ...

... for St. John's. I followed the tangle of roads south through Harbour Grace and Bay Roberts to the Trans-Canada Highway and motored on in to the capital of the province. For campers the best place to stay is Pippy Park. It's located only 3km from downtown near the Memorial University of Newfoundland. I set up camp and grabbed a quick meal before walking to downtown. I took a quick look up and down Water Street and Duckworth Street to scout for ...

St. John's again

... Bishop Jones' crosier. On special occasions, they are used at worship. As the patronal festival was the next day, the vault was open and the artifacts were displayed, including the communion set given by Prince William to the people of Placentia, where I had been only a couple of days ago. BACKTO THE HOLIDAY STUFF The nice little tour guide spent a long time with me and showed me all she could. In that period, I also learned a bit about her as well. She always wanted to be a ...

... ahead". As I nodded towards each direction. People on the street must have thought I was nuts. Eventually I got my way figured out and headed back downtown snapping many, many photos. On the way, I tried to locate the excavation of Fort Townsend. There were no particular directions. I just wandered down Bonaventure to Newtown road. Along there, I saw some orange plastic fencing and some young people in hard hats. I just wandered up and asked if this was the excavation of ...
