Sept. 17, 2009 Day 20

It's the 17 th of September, and today we remember Kathleen who passed away 2 yrs ago. Teresa and Doug have their annual fundraising gold tournament today. The monies raised is for scholarships and helping other families with the expenses of having a sick child. We wish you and your family strength today. We love you.

A cool morning. 3c. The furnace was on in the motor home overnight. Seems like the farther south we go the colder it gets. But full sun today.
Our ferry for the trek back to Nova Scotia. We spent 9 days on Nfld, instead of 4 as originally planned.
This time security wanted to look in our fridge. Potatoes and root vegetables is what she was looking for.

This ferry was much larger and fancier than the first one. The main level is much higher on the ship, therefore a lot more speed bumps. Peter, Marcel and I found this lounge with a large TV. Only a few people throughout the trip.

Leaving Nfld.

There was no entertainment on board. So, this is where the three of us stayed. We watched 3 movies. At first the sound was so low, nobody could hear it. It didn't take Marcel too long to look for the volume control. Couldn't find it, so another passenger found someone to turn it up.

Immy and Jennie spent their time in the lounge. Jennie reading with a glass of wine, and Immy stretching out for a snooze.

As we got closer to shore, we stayed outside to enjoy the sunshine and the view.

Immy and Jennie joined us. At 5:30 we docked at N. Sydney, N.S. We turned our clocks back 1/2 hour.

This is the view from our campsite, and the bridge we crossed.

Just before 6 we arrived at Seal Island campground in New Harris (N.Sydney) N.S.
Immy is checking her email again outside. Iron in the cliff behind her is what gives it the reddish color.
