Argentia to Conception Bay South - Kelligrews (visiting Mr/Mrs. King)
i know that I've said this before but I am truly blessed to be fortunate enough to say that I have cycled across Canada (and to be afforded not only the time but the money to do so). Woke up in the B & B - oddly enough everyone has to make their own breakfast... but then again it was super reasonable at $65.00 for the night. The morning began with a steep hill to climb and then more hills and rock everywhere.
Newfoundland is definitely named correctly as the ROCK! So many rocks and beautiful pristine lakes everywhere. It occurred to me today how fortunate I have also been to meet such a wonderful group of people supporting me - obviously my family tops the list, as does the people reading this blog but then there are those that I don't really know - the people in cars that toot their horns as they pass and give me the thumbs up... they don't know me - but I guess they have me figured out when they see all the gear I'm towing with me. Today this happened about 5 times (each time I smiled and thought... I'm going to make it)... never did I ever doubt that fact, but I guess it reassured me of that fact.
Great day... amazing fish and chips from By Da Beach Restaurant... and great company - Mr and Mrs. King are wonderful people - so kindhearted (once again this is no surprise). Thanks Jason for letting your parents know that I was coming through the area.
