NEWFOUNDLAND – L’ANSE AUX MEADOWS.

Day 125 – It was 44 degrees this morning & we’re getting low on propane. We drove north to do the Viking thing; it’s a big draw here. We stopped at several places on the way hoping to find some propane. No luck, but supposedly we can get a fill-up in St. Anthony, so we’ll head there later.

NEWFOUNDLAND – BRRR!

Day 124 – Cold! It was 50 degrees, cloudy & windy at a little after 8 a.m. Not a big deal, right? But we were surprised to see temperatures only dropping slowly throughout the day as the wind increased – 46 degrees in the middle of the day in August. We’d intended to go to St. Anthony today to visit the Grenfell Museum. Since it was indoors, we figured we would survive, but as it got colder, we just didn’t feel like leaving the RV. The kitties enjoyed cuddling with us & we enjoyed the relaxing day, too.

NEWFOUNDLAND – RALEIGH TO NORTH BOAT HARBOUR.

Day 122 – It was 46 degrees outside this morning. The girls didn’t have their heated pads since we have no electricity.

We hung out until a little before 11 a.m., packed a lunch, then left for some exploring.

NEWFOUNDLAND – PORT AU CHOIX TO RALEIGH.

Day 121 – Still windy last night but not as bad, we got up early this morning to get an early start for our trip north where the winds would be picking up in the afternoon. We wanted to get the driving done before it got too windy. At 6:40 a.m. it was 49 degrees.
