The Hidden Cameras Day 11. Let the drive begin.
We got up mid-morning, had a bite to eat and left St. John's around 12:30pm. It looked like it was a good day for a drive, and things were going really smoothly.
Then we got to Corner Brook and hit a storm. And it was bad. There was one point where there were no tracks on the road, everything was white and all I could see was snowflakes. I couldn't even tell if we were moving, and that was only at 20km/h. In fact, I thought we had started sliding backwards down a hill towards the bridge we had just crossed. It was pretty scary to say the least. Finally after about 30 seconds, we passed a sign, so at least we knew we were moving forward. That whole episode probably didn't last more than a minute but it felt like a year. It didn't get a whole lot better the rest of the way, but at least we could see things. It felt pretty amazing to get on the ferry that night. Only took 12 hrs to get there...
