Friday August 2

We pack up and leave the beautiful Bonavista Peninsular and head for the big city of Saint John’s where half of population of the entire province calls home. The four hour drive passes quickly as we make our way south to the Trans Canada Highway once more. The eastern end of the highway that crosses the entire country is Saint John’s. We’re in Pippy Park, a city park only 15 minutes from downtown. At a visitor center along the Trans Canada we are told of a Kitchen Party at 5 pm at Quidi Vidi Brewery just outside of downtown Saint John’s on the water. We make our way there and find it noisy and crowded. We enjoy an Iceberg Amber made with 20,000 year old ice from, you guessed it, an iceberg.

There is no way we are finding seats at a table for the show starting in two and a half hours so after the brew we find ourselves at a fish and chips truck and enjoy an early dinner. It’s back to the campground getting ready for the city fun tomorrow.
