Cape Spear is the most eastern point in North America other than Greenland. We rode out to the cape it was 20 minutes from downtown St John's following a two lane curving road. It was hard believe that beyond the shore was Europe!
We had to back track 80 klm to the turn off to Argentia, we stopped at Placentia for lunch where Harold's Hotel served up Jiggs dinner. Boiled carrot, potato, turnip, salted beef, turkey and yellow pea pudding. I enjoyed it for brunch! We were in line at the ferry 4 hours early followed by 53 other bikes. We all drove on, tied the bikes down and scrambled to find a chair to sleep in for the 16 hour trip to North Sydney. It takes at least an hour for them to load the vehicles and freight, unloading takes even longer. They need lessons!!!
We road out of North Sydney heading WEST on the TransCanada highway, ending our day 460 klms in Moncton. Al finally got to eat the lobster dinner😀
