We joined a Senior Tour and visited  Newfoundland in August 2003.  It is located far east of Canada, and the province is called 'a big island '.   It was our second visit there, and this time we traveled the northern part of the island, and also visited Labrador crossing 'Strait of Belle Isle'  , the Gulf of St.Lawrence. There are many historical sites for our country, and we enjoyed very much this trip.  Unfortunately, my camera was broken down at the point of one quater of this trip!    But, here are still  some images of my memories.

We flew from Toronoto to Deer Lake, and the bus tour started from Corner Brook. toward to the north to see Gros Morne National Park.  We have visited Red Bay, Labrador, St. Anthony, Grand Falls Twillingate, Gander, Bonavista, and St-Pierre (this is not a part of Canada, but France), and the capital of Newfoundland, St. John's.  It was 14 days trip.
