CANRDIAN STUDIES TRIP TO REMEDUNDLAND

course for the nost exciting field trip in the universities history. 8 students and 21» . professeurs loaded up the ‘ almost like new, red and white rent-a-van, and headed off to the big rock in the ocean(NFlD lthat is). r I : The whole were »

ernma'its, and Ronalda Murphy kept busy during her summer [months making reservations in the various landing points during the trek. ‘ On arriving in Port Aux Basques, after a nine hour ferry ride, the‘Can. Studders (Iwill refer to the students . and profs as the Can. Sind— lders) were raring to go.

11, the first stop was Cornerbrook, 'to meet all the different guys who work for NE'ID'S Dept. of Rural Development. These guys were more or less the tour guides: [for the trip. Starting from Cornerbrook, which consisted 1" of an egg processing plant, and a slaughter house, the tours and sessions worked their way up to the North Western coast and across to ILabrador.

The days were cut out for the Can. Studders; they were busy from early norn to supper time. Only two nights of eight were taken up by the tour guides but the time was well spent (steak and Istuff) .

Although the Studders visited many different plants, they were quite puzzled at the fact that since there were so many fish processing plants lthat they didn‘t have the Opportunity to tour one. Oh well! Maybe next year! Newfamdland, the most beautiful, untouched ' province, displays dozens of National Historic Sites. Probably the most interesting Isite the students toured , was the Norseman settlements in L'Anse aux Meadows in Northern NFID. At this site, archeologists have discovered the actual '

floor plans of NOrsemen I dwellings andby these structures they have recon-

structed sane of the buildings for tourists. This site was only one of the many sites the students took in. Another interesting learning experience was at Port aux Choice, where the skeletons and artifacts ofthe Maritime Archaic Indians are preserved und Parks Canadac _ ~

We musn't forget the 2—.dayvisit to Labrador!

“ exciting crossing

'to the land of the black flies once again encouraged the

Can. Studders to swallow their budgeted gravols before the

ferry ride. There was quite a difference between the

road conditions in NE‘ID and Labrador. At least in NFLD Host of the routes were paved. It can truly be

said that the road to Red Bay) Labrador was torture.

With Andy Robb behind the wheel and Prof. Canpbell with his eyes hidden within a smelly pillow, the students wrote their wills. But when they finally reached Red'Bay‘ , their spirits , were better. Here at Red Bay, there was an underwater excavation of an old Viking ship going on. And a certain future UPEI professor was discovered on the barge wearing rubber

. boots and long, tangled hair Anna took

tied behind her neck. the Studders on a tour of the

small rocky island about 200 yds.

from the Bay's shore, and gave an explanation on the discoveries at this point.

So,as you can See, the ten days of fun-filled, edu— cational activities was well worthwhile. Rumor hath it that next year the Canadian Studies majors will travel to B. C. on exchange with Simon Fraser.

Great thanks must bé given to the Student Union for their contribution to the trip,and also» to Andy Robb and Professor Canp— bell for putting up with the students ( or is it the other way around?) .
