St. Anthony

We ventured to the site of the first landing of Europeans on the North American continent. L’Anse aux Meadows National Historic Park is at a northern tip of Newfoundland and a place of great archeological discovery. Remains of a 1000 year old Viking settlement rest there. It’s not everyday that you get to visit a place of such antiquity.

Two of our toads have been injured. They have needed transplants and are back on the road.
One lesson learned by all is that the Newfies are very friendly people who go out of their way to help and don’t expect a king’s ransom in return.
