Busy week

Finally we are back in Internet and cell phone communications after a fun and exciting week in the central area of Newfoundland.
On Monday we drove from Gros Morne to Lewisporte which gave us access to a day trip up to the pretty town of Twillingate and then back to Lewisporte. The next day we visited Gander and especially the airport that handled 37 huge airplanes during 9/11 and the shutdown of the American airspace.
Gander we traveled to the small town of Port Blandford where we parked in the parking lot of the Royal Canadian Legion and had a great time with the locals that came by and opened up thir hall - and bar. On Wednesday we drove up to check out Bonnevista and Trinity and then back home again.
On Thursday we went to Heart's Content and they had a party to welcome us and we enjoyed checking out the spot where the first trans Atlantic telegraph cables crossed the Atlantic.
Yesterday we arrived here in St. Johns and back in contact with the world and especially with Ellis Mills who discover the water leak at our house and has been handling all the problems associated with this.
More later and will upload pictures after we tour St. Johns
