Week #3 - Finish Fogo Island, Bonavista Peninsula (Puffins!), and Cape St. Mary's (Bird Rock!)

Internet has certainly been a challenge in Canada.  Cellular coverage is actually better than I expected, but not being able to use it most of each day, given Verizon's unmetered 1/2 GB limits, has been frustrating.  Oh well, at least I am avoiding most of the current events in the world ;-)

Week #3 includes finishing up Fogo Island, making a brief stop in Terra Nova National Park (the weather was not cooperating), moving onto the Bonavista Peninsula and seeing the Puffins (wow!) and historic and picturesque town of Trinity.  We still have more to see on that peninsula, but we departed early due to weather.  We next went down to Cape St. Mary's Ecological Reserve for a visit to Bird Rock (wow again!).  This place is often blanketed by fog, but we lucked out and had a good evening for viewing, until we were finally socked in and had to boondock in their parking lot for the night.

Once again you'll see too many pictures (though these are severely pared down from what was actually taken).  And again these are a combination of Steve's and Carol's photos.  Steve has a full-format camera, but Carol has a nice pocket camera with a 40x optical zoom.

As for traveling, ThistleDewToo is holding up pretty well.  Right now her levelers are on the fritz, so we do a little more rocking and rolling in the wind.  But in general, we've been quite comfortable.  And Carol is keeping us well-fed with healthy, yummy, vegan food, supplemented by occasional visits to Subway.

And today is out 39th wedding anniversary.  Our desired campground was full, so last night we boondocked behind Subway.  Happy Anniversary honey ;-)  Hey, at least I got you some WiFi ;-)
