Whale watching

Ferry ride to Blanc-Sablon

Little more fun than the redeye from Sydney.

Red Bay Labrador

We stopes for lunch in this small fishing town, after this it's no fuel for 150 km and all dirt until Goose Bay 1000km away. We met up with Charley in Sydney, NS he bumped into us here and there but stuck with us when we started the Trans Labrador Highway.

Disembarking the ferry

The ride out of Blanc-Seblon was very scenic, a coastal twisty road though Quebec into Labrador. There are small fishing towns every 10-20 km, we fuel up at the first pump and head towards Red Bay, 100 km away and the start of the gravel highway.

Dinner in Nameless Cove

Ferry canceled due to high winds, found a small b&b in a lady's house, in Nameless Cove. We are her first customers.

We have reservations for 1030 tomorrow. So it's local scollops over an open fire, really ruffing it.
