From Red Bay onwards large sections of the road were dirt. For several days, the weather was mostly awful and the bugs were out in huge numbers. Here’s a diary of a few days in Labrador in a selection of lousy photos.
So long, paved road.
Better be careful.
You know there’s a lot of bugs when three giant ones fly in front of a single photo. Good grief, there were swarms of them and it was horrible.
Damp night in a junk yard by the highway.
Bear bear bear bear bear.
Quizzical.
*sigh*
I did have one night of good weather, down by the river in the town of Happy Valley-Goose Bay.
Very nice.
Making dinner.
Beautiful in the twilight.
Just cause you camp, doesn’t mean you can’t game.
Everything’s far away.
Truck rides.
Truck stops.
Camped by a sports field in Labrador City, with only a fake bear for company.
And that’s all you’re getting. Told you they were lousy photos!
