DAY 3 NEWFOUNDLAND - SOUTH BROOK TO GAMBO

Dad and Brian were greeted on the highway at the exit to South Brook last evening by Lewis, their host to escort them into South Brook.  There was a "meet and greet" where dad and Brian got the opportunity to meet so many wonderful people.  The local newspaper showed up to do a story as well.  A BIG THANK YOU to Hope and Lewis who hosted dad and Brian last evening and for arranging the meet & greet!

Yesterday was a beautiful day for a bike ride.  They took the time to stop at Grand Lake (picture) for a swim and to wash their clothes.  Off they went feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.  Dad stopped at a store to get a bottle of water and upon entering he heard "so your the guy."  Dad was told that they had heard his daughter on the radio outlining his journey.  (My 30 seconds of fame).  Dad was handed a few donations and received quite a few honks as they were cycling.

Today dad and Brian are off to Gambo approximately 25 miles (47 km) east of Gander.  The original destination was to be Gander, but there is a member of Trinity United whose parents live in Gambo and she and her family are in Gambo for a visit and invited dad and Brian to spend the evening.  They have approximately 217km today to Gambo.
