Gros Morne

We are currently camped in Gros Morne National Park. It was a beautiful drive today. Although it was a little wet and rainy the clouds were high and so we saw all the mountains. The mountains are so interesting here. Some look tall and steep like what you would expect in China (think National Geographic) and others are large and rounded. All are covered with fir trees a lot smaller than what grows in BC.

Tomorrow the weather is supposed to be bright and sunny so we have booked the Western Brook Pond tour.

This evening we went moose looking again but we only saw one and it was about 200m away so we didn't get too good of a look. Everyone tells us they are everywhere but we have only seen two so far and at a distance. Although we don't want one through the windshield we would like to see one that is fairly close. So far in Gros Morne 25 moose have been hit (just in the park) the number for all of Newfoundland is in the hundreds. Everyone tells us not to travel at night because of the moose.
