Day 21 Ferry to Nfld

Excited for the final roads east and the ferry to Nfld we were on the road to North Sydney arriving way before the required time.  Als bike groaned when he started it so he walked over to Canadian tire for a new battery to install later. No problem boarding the bikes we were parked in the car lanes behind each other. We had to tie them down before heading upstairs to the passenger lounge where we grabbed comfortable high back adjustable chairs at the window ready for 5 hours on the water.

Al met new friends while I read an entire book between watching the scenery go by.  Docking in Port au Basque was uneventful but shockingly beautiful,  I was amazed it looked exactly like the brochures.  30 motorcycles and a couple transport trucks were first off on a curving TransCanada hwy, the gusts of wind kept our minds on task.  The 164 klm drive to Stephenville went quickly, getting there before darkness!  Dave and Sherry from the ferry met us in the dining room for dinner; we were all hungry as we had not eaten since breakfast.
