Ferry ride to St. John's, New Brunswick

We got up this am at 4:30 AM EST to be sure that we were in line for the 7 AM EST ferry departure time. We enjoyed a gorgeous sunrise over the water. It is a good thing that we did because the computer at our check in station was not working and it took a LONG time to get processed. This ferry had a REAL bad odor in the bottom where we left the RV. We enjoyed a ride that is as good as it gets on the bay!! THANK God for answered prayers for that because motion sickness was a concern and we came through like CHAMPS. We even went to the cafeteria on our level and had a full breakfast about half way through the ride. It took about 3 hours for the ride from Digby,NS to St. John's, New Brunswick. Petie made the ride okay as well. He got up when i spoke to him and shook off and stretched. i feel for sure that he had slept the entire ride. It was dark where the RV was parked. Well, the perfect day kind of ends there. The RV check engine light came on as soon as Bruce cranked it up. Of course, that was unnerving to say the least. THEN
the lack of road signs in this country caused naigation problems getting to the campground. the GPS in the end got us there!!
