icebergs and cod tongues

From Gros Morne we drove to the northern tip of Newfoundland and L'Anse aux Meadows - the site of the first European settlement (Norse) in North America over 1000 years ago. The UNESCO site recaptures the struggle to survive in this harsh climate with actors in role (with local accents) in sod huts going about their daily tasks.

On to Twillingate. As there is only one road to the north we had to retrace our route - but we have found that the views are still fresh from the other direction.
We are really enjoying B&Bs - meeting the locals and interesting fellow travellers and getting good advice.

Fogo is a little island off the east coast and probably as close as we'll find to the traditional old days of subsistence living in fishing outports - wonderful people!

Firsts: icebergs, moose burger, caribou burger, cod tongues (look deceptively like scallops!), squashberry and bakeapple jams....still to come - a Newfie dog and puffins.

Later today we move on to Bonavista.
