The forecasted bad weather came right on schedule, it was pretty wild today. We stayed close to the trailer, watched a bit of TV on the one channel we could get, used the WiFi in the campground, and read. Got bored by noon, and decided to go for a drive north to Heart's Content to see the location of the first transatlantic cable station. The drive was pretty rough in the bad weather, cannot imagine being out here in the winter on these high open hills in bad storms. We got to the museum, looked at all the displays, and watched a movie they had available. Saw the remnants of the actual cable by the side of the road, really amazing thinking of what a feat that was for it's time. Forgot the camera to take a picture.
Finished off our visit by stopping by a McDonalds in Carbonear and having a McLobster, not too impressive. I like my lobster hot and buttery, not cold and mixed with mayo and stuff. Back to the trailer in the continuing bad weather. (250 km)
