Three more sleeps!

Packing has started and the chaos of leaving home & work for 2 months continues.  It will be good to be done all the preparations and hit the road.  I will try to be faithful in documenting our trip so you can join in on the fun and for us having a keepsake of the adventure to relive these moments in years to come.  Stay tuned.....

August 10 - off to New Brunswick

Image
We packed up the motorcycle into the trailer.  Probably won’t be riding anymore the rest of our trip.  Kevan gave it a good clean to wash the salt air residue off.  We’ve put on just over 5000km on the bike this trip and over 10000km on the truck already. We drove out of Cape Breton and headed to Moncton New Brunswick.  We had seen an ad on tv that there was a casino in Moncton that offered free RV parking overnight and we thought that could be a fun overnight spot.  The weather in Nova Scotia was beautiful.  As we got closer to Moncton we could see a thunderstorm brewing.  Torrential rain mixed with large hail followed.  People pulled off the highway and waited out the storm.  We stopped briefly but then carried on.  It was over almost as quickly as it started.  We knew something was up in Moncton when we got off the highway and tried turning into the casino.  A bit of a traffic nightmare and many people walking with cam...

August 7 - Gander

After we got off the ferry yesterday from St. Pierre we had a short ride to Marystown and spent the night at a B&B.  Got started relatively early this morning and headed to Gander.  We rode to Goobies again and had a short break there.  We then carried on to Gander.  We got into town early afternoon.  There’s not much to do in Gander so we had a relaxing rest of our afternoon & evening. Interesting factoids in the restaurant at Goobies This is the only moose we’ve seen😊. Counting our blessings  The road to Gander A glimpse of Gander Lake

Regrouping

After phone calls & messaging family, and alot of soul searching we decided the next day to make arrangements to fly home & store our trailer & bike.  All of Thursday was spent looking for flights, where we could store our stuff, who could accommodate us, etc.  Thank you Janice from Ocean Breeze for arranging our flights.  We decided to bypass our New York City stay because Boston had direct flights to Vancouver and the KOA in Boston was able to juggle our reservations and let us stay in a site there for our new dates...coming earlier and staying longer.  We left Washington Friday morning and stayed in New York State that night.  Saturday we continued on to Plymouth just outside of Boston.  We were still setting up the trailer when new neighbors pulled in beside us.  They came over to visit because they noticed our B.C. plates.  They too were from BC.  I asked which part of B.C. and they announced Chilliwack!  Too crazy!
