8/20/14 Leaving Newfoundland

Oh my, how time flies when you’re having such a grand time.  A delightful boardwalk  along the shore…..Centuries ago, the Cod Fishermen would dry their Cod upon the beach.  It was seasonal work – they cam in the spring and left again in the fall back to France, England, Scotland, Ireland.IMG_1759

One more stop at Castle Hill – a French Fort over looking Placentia.IMG_1751IMG_1752 IMG_1754

We’re leaving from Argentia – a 14+ hr ferry trip back to Sydney, NS. Folk singer entertainment was enjoyable.  Movies too.  But, what a night – lesson learned – always book a cabin.  it was up in the chair, down on the floor, again and again.  Nothing quite comfortable.   Arrived with sunny skies……
