Doug
& Nikki's, Holyrood, Newf. 94 Kms ~ 4:20 Hrs
I
was up about 6:00 on a clear, bright, windless day. After a bit of
thought I chose to not ride back in a vehicle. I felt a bit bad
because both Nik and Meagan had come out in separate vehicles, there
not being enough room in the truck for 3 adults and 2 dogs. I latched
on to Mark and met his folks who were there to greet him and their
host at the B&B where they had spent the night. We went back to
the B&B for "coffee" that turned out to be a full
breakfast and about 3 hours of chat. We also stopped at the Irving
about 30 Kms more down the road for a snack.
Doug
and Nikki had taken most of my stuff and my trailer so my ride was
easier but no faster.
At
Nik's we had a couple of beers and Mark showed us how to make pasta
and he, Doug and I spent about 90 minutes rolling the dough into
correct shapes. It was time consuming but tasty and filling.
Jean
came over with his wife, daughter and mother-in-law. Also a propane
tank for barbequing the pork chops and a roll-a-way cot for me to
sleep on. Jean is so handy. (Cathline, Julliet and ?)
Gnoki
(?) pasta
Today's
ride took us from Argentia to Holyrood therefore, technically, from
the Gulf of St. Lawrence to the North Atlantic; across Newfoundland.
