Judy says she has now got us enrolled so I can write about my trip to Newfoundland. Hopefully my comments and suggestions will help others planning to head to this gorgeous spot. First I should introduce myself: I am Kirk; I was trained as a Guide Dog for the Blind and am still working for that organization as a stud dog ( a great job, by the way). I have graciously been granted a sabbatical this summer so I can visit my ancestral home. Well, I'm not actually going to make it to Labrador, but Judy pointed out the ferry as we drove along the coast. You see, I am a yellow lab and travel with my buddy Xerxes, also a former guide dog, and an elderly Wheaten terrier called Reilly. We really all love traveling in the motorhome. We can get up and stretch whenever we want and I can help the driver check for moose. Mind you, bathroom breaks are a little confusing: every time Judy opens the door, the landscape has changed. I can't even find my favourite tree! So Rv'ing for us boys has its unique perspective. I hope you will enjoy my notes.
It's been 2 weeks since we left home in Ottawa. We were wakened up at 2 am so we could head off and get through Montreal before the traffic! OUr first stop was just on the other side of Montreal. There is a great park there between the 2 highways with lots of parking for motorhomes and trucks and since it was daylight, Judy took us each for a quick stroll. Then back to sleep.
I will get out the notes later, so I can give you some tips in case you are making this journey.
Happy tails! Kirk
