Day 13: SCREECH!!!!
After a nice long sleep, we slowly woke up and got our day going. We were still pretty tired and sore from sleeping on floors and driving across the country, so one of our goals today was to find a pool/hot tub and just sit in it. After about an hour of driving around and googling, we determined that half of the pools on google maps don’t actually exist. The other half were either closed or busy. Rather disappointing.
Next, we made a quick stop at Walmart to buy some essentials and improve our lodgings. We bought some air mattresses and properly staked out the tents. It was like a home away from home.

For dinner, we had some authentic east coast lobster. This was followed by a night out on George Street, known for having the most bars per square foot in North America. That night, we were inducted as honorary Newfoundlanders and were “screeched in”. This was an interesting process that involved among other things, kissing a cod, and taking a shot of screech rum.
