A CHANGE OF PLANS.

Day 36 – The low last night was 36 degrees. This morning when we got up it was cloudy. It remained cloudy all day, and in the afternoon the wind picked up enough to shake the RV a little. The wind was unexpected for today, but we knew it was supposed to rain early evening today through Saturday. Our plan was to leave here Saturday and go to La Scie, one of our favorite places in Newfoundland, and camp on top of the cliffs looking over the northern Atlantic (whales & icebergs in season). We were going to stay a week. The weather forecast beginning Saturday and lasting through Tuesday had us concerned.

HEADING NORTH.

TRAVEL DAY

From: Barachois Pond Provincial Park, Stephenville Crossing, NL.

To:Deer Lake Municipal RV Park, Deer Lake, NL.

Day 35 – It was 34 degrees when Rob got up this morning; I slept in. We took our time packing up. We didn’t have any hook-ups at this campground, so we had to dump our tanks at a dump station near the exit to the Park. After dumping, we departed at 11:05 a.m. It was 59 degrees and sunny – another beautiful day.
