Our last big adventure on THE ROCK before heading for the ferry. It was totally incredible. Arrived in Corner Brook around 1. Took a drive along the Bay of Islands to this awesome spot on the Gulf of St Lawrence. It doesn't get any better than this. We were happy to get our truck back this morning and lucky to have had only one flat tire on the rental. Our ferry sails tomorrow around 6:30 if it is on schedule. It will be after midnight when we arrive at Cape Breton. Could have used two more weeks here. We'll just have to come back.
TIME, you old gypsy man, Will you not stay, Put up your caravan. Just for one day.

Bell Island
A 20 min. ferry ride to Bell Island and a visit to a underground iron ore mine. Didn't have the time to explore the island, the home of 2700 people but really enjoyed what we saw.
Education time: Only land attack during WWII was a loading pier for iron ore torpedoed by the Germans. Germans sank two Canadian ships in the harbor with the loss of many lives.
