Innuit kids in Sheshatshiu village, Goose Bay area

I never new the difference between Innu and Innuit people. At the "Interpretation centre" of the zone,
a lady who said she was Inuit, explained to us that Innu are known as "Eskimos" and
Innuit are known as "Indians".

- There are actually 2 villages in the area (I forgot the name
of the second one), and one is supposed to be of Innus while the other of Inuits.
We visited both, and this is all I know about :)

Trans Labrador highway

Yesterday, we've been all the day on this gravel road (actually 7 hours) and finally
arrived in Goose Bay/Happy Valley.

This whole road from St. Mary (actually Red bay) to Labrador City (part has been just opened
this year), is all gravel - about 550KM (330 miles) to Goose Bay.

When there is a lot of rain, it becomes really difficult to travel.
We've been a little worried about it.

No place to stop even not a gas station or bathroom for 7 hours..., but, we made it! :)

I hope to find some nice photos to take today in Goose Bay/Happy Valley.

We didn't have an Internet connection, so sorry that I didn't upload anything
for the past 2 days and no comments either - Thank you very much for all yours :)

- I'll try to catch up with my comments today :)

* Please look back to the past 2 photos uploaded.

St. Lewis village, Labrador

2 days ago we left St. Mary heading North toward Goose Bay, on a cloudy,
rainy weather. St. Lewis was the first stop, a very small, but nice and clean,
village, well organized with lovely people.

St. Lewis is the most East point settled in N. America

- This, all East Labrador and Newfoundland are on the Greenland timezone,
which is 1and 1/2 h earlier than the Eastern Standard Time
