Newfoundland Pics, Part 2

Here are some more pics of Zain in Newfoundland. I've also posted several more pictures, of things other than Zain, on Facebook (you don't need a Facebook account to see the album - click on one of the pictures to a get a bigger view, then you can scroll through all the pics): https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10151149077640351.492841.730880350&type=1&l=3a876e7774

Love these feet

Shy (and silly) boy

"Pwetending" to drink Mum Mum's coffee at camp. We camped 8 days on the trip, at 4 different campsites [note to other toddler owners - road trip with toddler, not a great idea].

Zain made a few friends on the trip. 6-year-old Sky from Labrador was his tour guide at L'Anse aux Meadows, a Viking settlement from about 1000 years ago

On an iceberg/whale/dolphin-seeing boat tour in St. Anthony. For some reason we didn't consider the possible negative impacts of a boat ride in the North Atlantic on a windy day. See that bucket and squeegee? It's there for a reason. All three of us, in addition to several others on our boat, got a wee bit seasick. In our case, we did sightseeing for about 15 minutes and then spent the rest of the 2 hours praying for the ride to be over.

Reality beginning to set in....  We did see some whales and dolphins and one big iceberg, but I think all of us would agree it wasn't worth it. Well, except maybe Zain - he still says "Zain sit on it?" every time we see a boat.

Back on solid ground, testing the new boots

Caribou antler!

"That an otter."  [Repeat 90 times.]
