Today was a easy relaxing day for Greg and I. Just a few preparations to get ready for the few days on Newfoundland. Nancy and Dave had more to do as they had to pack up their stuff to go to Newfoundland, Toronto and get their belongings pack for Greg to drop off in Nanoose.
It was a nice morning. Greg filled up the truck with gas and around 11 we all headed to the Jane's pizza just across the highway for lunch. Pizza was good...very cheesy.
A few more preparations and everything was packed away. We moved the trailer over to the storage area of the RV park. Went for a bit of a walk and then sat an waited until it was time to ride down to the ferry. Greg was taking a taxi with all the bags and was leaving just after us.
Checked in at the ferry and then sat and read and waited for 4 o'clock boarding time. Greg got on a shuttle as a walk on, but the three bikers had to go on with the motorbikes. There were 2 other young riders who rode from Thuro as they are heading back to school in St. Johns. This was their first long ride and enjoying their time.
Once on the ferry we had to strap our bikes to something along the side of the ferry so they didn't fall over and were secure. Once done I headed up to the cabin as Greg was already there.
A bit of reading, a walk around the ferry to get our bearings, a beautiful afternoon on the top deck. Had a drink at the Mosquito Bar where we met a couple Sean and Christine and talked for a while. Still full from the pizza we opted to eat a little later so we went to the room for a while. We decided to do the buffet and were joined by Sean and Christine. Dinner was good, a big selection.
Off to the cabin, to read and sleep. Sleep did not come right away. I was to anxious / melancholy about the trip ending and thinking about upcoming events etc. etc..
But sleep did come! Heidi
