So, I’m going to keep this really short today. We are booked on tonight’s ferry to Cape Breton, Nova Scotia from Port aux Basques at 11:45pm. The drive from Gander is about 6hrs. That’s a lot of driving, it was foggy all morning and started to clear early afternoon.
We pulled into Port aux Basques at about 3:00pm and setup at the Mouse Island lookout to spend a quiet afternoon until it was time to check in for the ferry.
I’ll provide an update on our crossing in tomorrow’s post so come back then to find out how we made out.
Tomorrow we drive across Nova Scotia to New Brunswick.
Hang on a minute…. Where’s the summary? You know, the post where we tell you what we thought of Newfoundland and how much we really would recommend this trip to anyone and everyone. Well, its here. That bit above is true. Our three weeks here have been amazing and you should have been able to get that from reading our posts. Our pictures cannot really capture the beauty, tranquility and solitude that we found on ‘the rock’. Whether you choose to drive as we have done or fly you are sure to enjoy what you will find. This is not a hidden gem of an island for it is big, bold and out here for everyone to discover. Hopefully one day you too will find a little something special here as we have done.
