At shortly after 9 we headed for the ferry terminal in North Sydney. The ferry will take us and the truck to Argentia Newfoundland. There was only one last hill between our camp and the ferry terminal and it wasn't that bad after the North Mountain climb yesterday.
When we got to the terminal there was some confusion over where our tickets needed to be picked up from. We managed to locate the tickets and after John offered a ride to lunch to Kerry and I.
The lunch place that was recommended by a local. We headed over there in John's wife's rental car. We told the others in the group about it and they were going to meet us there. When we got there it was small and busy and they only had room for our group. The food was very good.
After lunch we headed back to the terminal and waited to board the ferry. At 4:15 some of us boarded a shuttle that brought us into the ferry. 5 of us earlier had loaded our bikes into the truck. The others road their bikes on.
Once we had put our bags in the room Kerry and I checked out the ferry. There was a lounge area with a bar, movie theatre, a buffet area with a lot of seating, gift shop, and a small store with cold drinks and snacks.
At 7 we showed up at diner to join the rest of the group that had already been there and had eaten at least 2 plates worth. The buffet was pretty good and we all ate our $23 worth easily.
At 8:30 the buffet closed and the four of us that shared a room went back to our room and went to sleep early.
Tomorrow we do 94 km. 2nd last day.
