you ever remember a fic so clearly but can't find it?

there was a state/provincetalia fic i started reading (then lost 😭) that's premise was New Brunswick had gone missing and i think it was Quebec and Nova Scotia ended up in Louisiana to see if Louisiana had heard anything from him and within like four min Quebec was complaining about it being hot, and wet, and the bugs are huge. and Nova Scotia was like "if i take u to the french quarter and leave you there will you stop complaining?" "non"

Nova Scotia meets his biggest rival... 💥

Canada: alright. Mr. England asked everyone to celebrate Victoria Day every year. We can choose our own date as long as it is in May.

Ontario: Great! How about the Monday preceding May 25th?

Alberta: Why does it have to be so complicated?

Québec : Yeah ... I'm not doing that.

Ontario: I swear to god, Quebec! You're always being a pain in the ass, aren't you!

Nova Scotia: that's fine if he wants to miss out on a FREE DAY OFF.

Quebec: .... Alright but I'm calling it La fête des patriotes.

Ontario: *mumbles swear words*

From left to right- Manitoba, Ontario, British Columbia, Canada, Prince Edward Island, Québec, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick

Saskatchewan and Alberta had not yet been formed into provinces in 1873 so they are missing from the picture, and Newfoundland was their own dominion until 1945

Terra Nova and Bonavista Peninsula

Tuesday started off a little cloudy but we set off to walk along the Coastal Trail at Terra Nova.  Quite hilly in places but a lovely walk to a waterfall and back, around 6 kms total.  Then it was on the road again travelling on the Trans Canada as far as Port Blandford and on to Hw 233 across to Lethbridge, and the took the 230 up the Bonavista Peninsula to Trinity, a quaint old village originally settled by the British.  There are many old properties which have restored or retained as they would have been at the time.  Very interesting place. We had a couple of ventures off the main roads here which turned out to be not such a great idea as the roads were pretty bad.  Our stop for the night was to be Lockston Provincial Park, which, it turned out, was 5kms up a very potholed gravel road.  The guy at the Park referred to the road as being “less than perfect”!  Lovely Park with great facilities so got some laundry done at last! Fantastic sunset, reflected orange on the Moon!

Wednesday meant another 5kms on that “less than perfect road” to bring us down to Port Rexton and the Skerwink Trail, a 5.3 km path though trees and boggy areas to the coastal part along cliffs with fantastic views over the ocean, finally down to a pebble beach which was the icing on the cake with the waves crashing on the rocks and shore; what a sound.

After some refreshment it was on up the peninsula to Elliston where we had a chance to view Puffins nesting on an island very close to the shore.  We spent a long time here just watching these wonderfully comical birds fly, swoop and land, hop around their nesting areas and try to chase away pesky gulls trying to raid their nests.  Finally we left the Puffins and travelled the short distance back to Sandy Cove, a lovely beach area, where we had lunch.

Our next stop was Cape Bonavista and the rather unique old lighthouse there. Unique in that the tower was built first and then the keepers home built around it as opposed to separate as is usual.  A very interesting home indeed!

We left the Cape and the Peninsula and got back on to the Trans Canada as far as Clarinville and our stop for the night at Camp Walmart!  Typically we then found out that there was an excellent chance of seeing the Northern Lights that night, provided you were in a dark place, which we were not. Hrumph!

Today, Thursday, our goal was to get to St John’s (St Jaans!), which for the first hour was pretty hairy in thick fog, but we made it safely!  Mary wanted to visit the Memorial University Botanical Gardens so that was our first stop. We wandered around the gardens seeing plants we knew and many more we didn’t and taking in a short trail through part of the larger area.  We needed to do some grocery shopping so that was the next priority.  Late in the afternoon we took a drive out along the northern part of the Avalon Peninsula ending up at a lovely little bay at Flatrock.  We sat and had coffee looking out over the bay, the flat rocks, the waves and the gulls, before turning back to St John’s and Walmart for the night.

We have decided not to drive the 900 odd kms back across the island to the Port aux Basque ferry and have opted to take the much longer ferry trip (15 hours) from Argentia back to North Sydney in Nova Scotia, so we are booked for Monday evening which gives us a few days to explore the parts of the St John’s and area that we want to.
