Tuesday August 16, 2016 From Woodstock to Moncton, NB



A hot and humid day greeted us, plus a problem.  Three dashboard warning lights went on as the engine started, basically related to braking and anti-skid systems.  We also lost our cruise control.  We called Prime Mercedes in Scarborough, and they said it was probably a faulty electronic module. It should be safe to drive on as we had been doing till we could find a dealer in Canada.  Calls to dealers in Canada basically said it would be a week before they could look at us, so we made the decision to plug on to Newfoundland - we were able to get an appointment for next Tuesday in St. John’s.  We rearranged our planned camping arrangements and car rental in St. John’s, and were off! 
 Around noon we arrived at Kings Landing, a restored 19th Century village and living museum.  Big place, well done with good “reenactors”, and had a nice lunch in their King’s Arms restaurant.

  We got some good walking exercise in! 

 Campers City Campground in Moncton was our stop that night-our first and last overnight there.  Basically a place for local weekenders, not transients.  .
