Mad Scramble dash

So before Irene hit we had reserved seats on a ferry to get to Newfoundland, but we had to stay at the campsite instead of moving on to (by the earliest predictions) avoid being hit by Irene.  So we had an 6 hour day yesterday and a 8 hour day today.  Yeah not the nicest thing we've had to do, nicer that having to get up before 4 am so that we can arrive at 4 at the ferry terminal so that we can catch the 6am ferry which we have to do two days from now.  At least the night before I won't be kept up till 11:30 pm by mom's live hour for her course, that was last night.  (man that was annoying I only use 24 hour time so I can never keep am/pm straight)

O yeah, hurray we got back to an ocean today!  Say hello to the Atlantic. 

So onto yesterdays campsite, it was kind of nice with a beautiful pool, but there were complaints (from other campers) that the power/water were to far away so they could not connect.  The area was grassy (no paved sites) with trees, and definitely a party place, you know the kind of place that a whole group of people meet up with their trailers and throw a party, not the kind of place we like to stay.  Today's place is on CapeBreton island, and has one nice and one not so nice shower, again it is grassy but the trees are more scattered. Tomorrow we reach the ferry terminal, do some shopping and sleep so that we can get up at 4.
