We're still travelling down the east side of Newfoundland and today we went through Terra Nova National Park. Apparently, Terra Nova exists because of unique geography and bird migrations (I believe, don't quote me).
There were more hills than yesterday and it was a bit of a grind. I call this photo the "Newfie Roller Coaster." You could almost hear me groan right from BC when I saw it.
The other photo is of a town called Gambo, taken from a sp
ot on the highway called "Joey's Lookout." The Joey referred to is Joey Smallwood - I don't know if this was his home town or not (it's on my "round tuit" list to check)Port Blanford existed because of the railroad (now removed) and logging (you know what that's like). So, now its a sleepy little town with virtually no commercial buildings and a fair amount of residents spread out over the town's area. There is a big golf course development.
We stayed at a B&B again, the Serendipity hosted by Elsie. Very friendly, comfortable, a great breakfast.
