The Maritimes: Day Eight

After a wonderful week in Nova Scotia, it was time to sail for Newfoundland! Fletcher and Ruby Jean got to try out their sea legs with a short water crossing early in the day.

Then it was time to get in line for the real thing.

We may have looked a bit out of place next to all the fancy $100k+ rigs.

The cabin was lovely and even had a hot shower. Fletcher got to ride in his own bed (in the Jeep) and we all got several hours of much needed rest.

Fun fact: about half of all goods shipped to Newfoundland arrive on this passenger ferry.

The weather was wonderful so our crossing was smooth. Alison wants to take up sailing.
