Newfoundland Up-Date from Hadas and Tomer

Hi all. Well for the good news.... 3 days ago we crossed the bay of Notre dame, probably our longest crossing of 85 km, in perfect weather. It was from Shoe cove to Bacalho island.

Only after 10 hours we started seeing any land, and ended up 20 km beyond the point we planned to get to, So.... yohoooo!!!! yes, we were dead exhausted but very satisfied.

The next day we of course had no energy so only went 9 km to the next community, Cobbs arm, which isn't the greatest location for us now that we are stuck there for 2 days with no good tent location, no drinking water to find around, and not too much to buy at the local convenience store.

So, after staring at the tent walls for more then 30 hours straight, we decided to hitch a lift into the nearest town 20 minutes away, and are happy to just be standing and walking in the rain and in the freezing wind, instead of in the tent.

Who knows how many more days we will be stuck here, all we have is thick fog. It's not realy clearing up in the near future. We don't even have a good hiding place for toilet on the beach so our tent porch became a bit of our bathroom....mmmmm??? Our fingers are sore, our heels hurt and so do our backs. However, saying all that, our spirits are high and we are going to find something for lunch now...yum yum.

ciao for now T.S and H.F
