We left the campground at Sydney, Nova Scotia at 5:30 am to catch the 7 am ferry to Placentia, Newfoundland.  This ferry took 14 hours and the waters were rough but Dave and I played scrabble, read and ate and the hours went by and we landed in Newfoundland around 9:15 and headed off onto land in the dark of the night not knowing where we were going but hoping to find a campground, which we did.  It only had a place to put our 5th wheel, no hookups but we didn't mind as we were tired.

The last province for us to visit
