In 2007 Jan and I drove to Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. We took the Cat ferry from Portland, Maine to Yarmouth, Nova-Scotia. From there we drove the length of NS to Sydney. From Sydney we took another ferry to Port au Basques, NF and from there drove on to Gros Morne National Park. That journey takes 24 hours - if you time the ferry's right. There's a lot to see in Newfoundland. It's a wonderful place to explore, not crowded and has good camping and hiking. And if you go there be sure to try Bakeapple Pie with ice-cream - yum.
Now, if you go to live there as a transplant you gotta be "screeched in". To become an official "Newfie" you must drink a cup of Newfoundland Screech rum and kiss a codfish. Now when I was told this I thought that sounds a little too easy. I think you should have to jump into the cold water and swim around a bit. But why should I complain. :)
