Cormorants on the light standards at the ferry dock
We caught the ferry to Newfoundland at 12:30 pm the next day. We stood out on the sundeck for a while but there really no birds or sealife to be seen.
While we were having lunch in the restaurant Leo spotted a dolphin. I was all doped up on Gravol to avoid seasickness so mostly I slept.
We pulled into Port aux Basques about 7 pm. It was all you imagine a Newfoundland fishing port to be.
We drove to Cheeseman Provincial Park just 10 k from ferry terminal. The campsite was a former private campsite so we were packed in a little closely. But the washrooms were deluxe and very clean.
We went for an evening walk on the Smokey Cape Trail.
There were beautiful views in every direction.
Spring flowers were blooming.
