We were both rather stunned, and very disappointed, especially considering it was a banner year for icebergs, but we had driven over 1,800 km and were already out here, and needed to come up with some alternate plan. However, due to the circumstances, all my photo plans for Lunenburg went out the window, and we just slowly made out way back north along the coast, stopping at a picturesque fishing wharf in North West Cove...
The fog cleared and the sun came out, as we made our way to Lunenburg, which is a World Heritage site. I had several doll photos in mind, but first it was time for some lunch along the waterfront, with it's view of the famous harbour... It was also time to phone ahead and make a reservation on the ferry to Newfoundland. But we were shocked to hear there were no RV spaces available for several weeks, and that's when we needed to be back home. We'd never had a problem before. We'd always head out to the Maritimes, then phone a day or two ahead to make a reservation once we knew we'd actually be able to make it. But apparently during Covid Newfoundland became a very popular tourist destination, and now one needs to make a reservation a month in advance. We were both rather stunned, and very disappointed, especially considering it was a banner year for icebergs, but we had driven over 1,800 km and were already out here, and needed to come up with some alternate plan. However, due to the circumstances, all my photo plans for Lunenburg went out the window, and we just slowly made out way back north along the coast, stopping at a picturesque fishing wharf in North West Cove... Bonnie and Jamie went to check it out... We decided to spend the night at Peggy's Cove, and then we'd decide what to do next. The clouds moved in as we arrived back at the Cove, just in time for sunset... Tomorrow would be another day....

That does sound disappointing. You had planned the photo shoot and then "poof" it was gone. It looks like Bonnie and Jamie found fun things to do.
