Well, if today didn't have 30-50KM headwinds, I have to say the trip up the coast line may have been very dull. Instead, the bike spent most of the ride at a 20 degree incline, praying my head didn't get ripped off.
I have a nickname of "Birdman", as it appears that no matter what rider I am in the pack, a bird nearly collides with me. Today, the little critter ended up not so lucky, but apparently the GS is no worse for the wear. Notice the blood smudge to the left of the "B"..
Saw this Bull Moose on the way home. Considering all the other Moose barley have button velvet in yet, this boy was B.I.G.
If I had to do a caged vehicle to NFLD, I think that this one would be my choice:
L'Anse aux Meadows was nice, although it was a bit pricey. The Vikings landed there in 1000, but the site was not documented until 1970s.
At that time, the person simply asked the locals if they knew of any sod ruins. I guess it looks better than my current home will look in 1000 years..
Buildings were made of the sod/tundra and were 12-16" thick. I can only imagine how warm they must have been for the period.
The replicate village was alive with folk persons in traditional garb, and doing traditional arts such as:
boat making:
The joists are actually tree roots
Forging:
Weaving:
I will end this thread on somewhat a quizzical note. Does anyone else find the lower written description and the leftmost graphic image...well, perhaps...It might just make the scariest signs I've even seen!
Tomorrow, last day on the rock. Oh, and 90KMH gusts tomorrow!
PS Still looking for input for stuff to-do on PEI.
