Gander

From Gros Morne we continued east to Gander and were secure in a campground when heavy rain and wind hit actually shutting down the ‘TCH’ for 24 hours due to flooding and a potential slide. Gander has a very large airport and on ‘9/11’ over 40 jets bound to and from North America and Europe had to land here. The town became well known for feeding and housing more stranded passengers than its own population. Gander has a good aviation museum, with aircraft and equipment from WW 2 when it was a major staging base to ferry aircraft and personal to England.
