We are finished visiting the east & central parts of Newfoundland – for this trip anyway. We’re moving on today, beginning the last section of our trip which will be visiting the Northern Peninsula again when it’s not covered in snow, a several-week trip to see Gros Morne National Park in detail (we only drove through before, early in this trip), visiting communities on the western side of Newfoundland, and a trip by ferry to Labrador.
