New Foundland.Canada. What does mean “budget accommodation” here? Except the capital city of the province _ St John’s where you will find few hostels you have to look for “bed and breakfast” institutions. The problem is that very few of them offer twin rooms (rooms with two separate beds). So if you have a companion and you want to pay less it is not possible to share twin room – they want you to sleep in a double – with one wide bed.
In Fortune where I am I stay in the new-open Harborview B&B. The place is empty, but they wanted 75 CAD for double with shared bath. I offered 60 – we never paid more- I said! -No!
-You have a choice to have 60 dollars or to keep the room empty!
I’ll keep it empty! – he said…
Fortune is a little, sleepy village. Few people on the streets. Ferry ticket office is still cosed, but I believe that the ferry from St Pierre will arrive to pick up us (In June they operate only on Sun and Wed).
I see St Pierre et Miquelon on the horizon. Bon voyage!
