Thank you for inviting me to share some memories of life in Canada. This time, we visit the far eastern shore of Newfoundland and a small fishing village and cove.
I have two memories that stay with me from a couple of different trips to the island of Newfoundland when I was a child. The first one, I’m eight and my father rolled onto the car ferry at North Sydney Nova Scotia. This was my first clear memory of ferry travel. On previous trips, I was too young for clear recollection.
Specifically, I recall the incredible scent of the brine in my nose. I loved that sea scent immediately. I loved the large ferry, looking over the railing, and watching the water eddy and swirl way below. Ferries that cross the Gulf of St. Lawrence are big and loud and larger than life when you’re eight.
