Wednesday July 27, 2016 Rocky Harbour, Gros Morne National Park, Newfoundland, Canada

We were up at 7 and having our coffee.  Ben came around and let me know that it was doubtful if I could get a ride from the parking lot to the boat at Western Brook Ponds for today's tour.  I decided  to stay at the coach as opposed to waiting tn the parking lot at the Pond.  Ben said he could get me on the boat tour of Bonne Bay on Thursday and there was no walking involved.

Gerri decided to go on the tour today and rode with Moe and Pat.  I stayed at the coach and read most of the time.  I was able to make some phone calls and take care of some business involving insurance.






































Tin Man, can you see him?


Moose sighting


After Gerri and the group that went to Western Brook Pond came back. We rested for our evening outing at the theater in Cow's Head.  Cow's Head is a town quite a drive north of Rocky Harbour.   We rode to Cow's Head with Bob and Mary from Massachusetts. There we saw a fanciful play about the wreck of the SS Effie.  The SS Effie was a steam ship that was beached in a storm south of Cow's Head.  It carried mail cargo and passengers along the coast of Newfoundland and Labrador.  It was a dinner show. one act was put on while orders were take and then there was a break while dinner was served and consumed.



Headed back to Rocky Harbor the clouds were lowering and it was twilight.  We got back around 9 and read for awhile before calling it a night.
