JULY 20

Woke up to rain and heavy fog so decide to get some practical things looked after, changed oil, fill up propane, groceries etc. Drove up to Gros Morne Park Not much of a day to hike or take pictures so we did a museum or two found a campground and relaxed with a book.

WEDNESDAY.. Gros Morne park is a world heritage site and one look will tell you why. There are stunning sights everywhere you look. It a nice sunny morning and we had booked a boat ride and tour up the Western Brook Pond. (almost every body of water here is called a pond, there are no lakes, and if it is flowing it is a brook not a river)
The boat tour was about three hours and the mountains on both sides were up to 2200 feet 700 meters. most of the rock walls were nearly vertical and there were dozens of waterfalls.
Rather than us trying to describe it just look at the pictures.
