Hi guys! We completed our first Canadian Province, the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador. Here are some great facts the boys and I learned about this province.

Fun Facts: 
  • Newfoundland is referred to as "The Rock"
  • Newfoundland is located on the east coast of Canada
  • Its capital city is St. John
  • Provincial flower is the Pitcher Plant
  • Provincial bird the Puffin
  • Labrador's coast boarders the Labrador Sea and a part of the Atlantic Ocean
  • Famous attractions include: Jelly bean row, L'Anse aux Meadows famous Viking settlement


Here's a loose schedule I followed. We did not get to everything I planned.
