Good Morning from Central Newfoundland - Grand Fall- Windsor
This our second RV site in Newfoundland and are staying at the Sanger Memorial Park which is run by the city. Great spot with full service sites. One of our main objectives was to meet up with Dana Burry & Fam as they were having a family reunion in Pool's Cove. Dana is a physician who I worked with at the Cumberland Medical Clinic for 10 years. I didn't call her before she left Comox so communication was difficult as both our cell phones didn't work. Her sister-in-law Michelle Burry ( a long time friend) helped and gave me the best advice ever!!! Don't take your RV to Pools Cove !!!! I would have had to back it up 35 KM just to turn around. Pools Cove is a tiny fishing village and her cousin lives in Turnip Cove which is just in the next bay. It was had enough turning my truck around. THANKS MICHELLE !!!!!! We decided to leave the RV at Grand Falls and stay at a hotel in Harbour Breton for the first night and then stop by Pool's Cove the next day. This is a interesting drive in areas where tourists don't normally go. You probably will not find it on a map so have put the pictures on a map for you. Use the Map feature in Flikr. We are staying here for a few more days then going toEastport on the east coast.
I have had many e-mails woundering if we are broke yet with the gas costs.

Cost of Gas to Newfoundland : $3,308.09
Diesel Fuel - Cheapest- FlyinJ Kamloops - $1.25/l Most expensive Harbour Breton $1.58/l
