Hey, how's it going?

Question: How would one get to Newfoundland?

I tried mapquesting it. Mapquest doesn't deal very well with islands.

I also tried the ViaRail website. Somebody should smack me in the head now.

Plane?
Ferry?
Magic carpet?!

plane or ferry are your only options

But where do you get the ferry from?

I'm coming from Montreal, and I'd like to take the bus to wherever the ferry goes.

Thanks for your help, by the way. I had forgotten that there were other Newfie cmers.

oh wait. how about an answer for that question, eh?

Random Name · Post by **Random Name** » 3/26/2007, 8:53 pm

Uhhhh Its going to cost somewhere around 300-500 to get to/from the mainland. Driving would consist of going through the Atlantic provinces, trying to get the ferry to cross and spend a day on a boat, then another day of driving to get to St. John's. The easier way is direct Toronto to St. John's or Toronto-Halifax-St. John's.

Nonetheless, its a horribly complicated unnecessary trip to a fairly bland place.

Yannic, you should be asking how to get to Utah.

First, you get in a car. Then, you drive. And hours later, you will be here! We have polygamy beer....

WTF! 300-500?!? That's pretty close to my whole budget for this cross-canada trip! No wonder newfies have developed such a strange accent, fucken all isolated out there in the atlantic.

Er, well. Now I have to reconsider. Polygamy beer, you say?

Henrietta · Post by **Henrietta** » 3/27/2007, 1:00 pm

Yes! I think Polygamy Ale, to be more precise.
