On this episode we head to the top of Newfoundland's Great Northern Peninsula in search of Icebergs and Vikings. Join us on our iceberg quest with Dark Tickle Expeditions as we head out into the North Atlantic waves for an unforgettable encounter with 7 icebergs. We then explore L'Anse aux Meadows, a Canadian National Historic Site and UNESCO World Heritage Site where Vikings landed in the new world more than 1,000 years ago....beating Columbus to North America by nearly 500 years. And we also visit Norstead, a recreation of a Viking village and port of trade that includes Snorri - a one-to-one scale recreation of an authentic Viking knarr (ship). We also visit the towns of St Lunaire and St Anthony and become honorary Newfoundlanders when we get screeched in at Skipper Hots in the tiny village of Straitsview. We also have information about camping in the area including Viking RV Park. And finally, we have 4 tips for any Newfoundland travellers for whom chasing icebergs is a priority. Playlist Note: If you are an RVer/camper/traveller headed for Newfoundland and Labrador we hope our 14 Episode Travel Guide Series is entertaining, interesting and helpful - and please feel free to share them with your fellow RVers/travellers.
