End of the Trail
And just like that we arrived at our final Caribou – the Newfoundland Memorial in Courtrai which marks the furthest position achieved by the Newfoundland Regiment in Belgium. This also marked our final World War I memorial and closed that chapter of our adventure. It was a bittersweet moment as we were sad to close one adventure, while at the same time getting excited about getting closer to the Haarlem Jamborette.
For one last time, we gathered in horseshoe around a great caribou to give thanks…
After our ceremony we called up Carl, our amazing tour guide, so we could officially invest him as an honourary Scout and member of the 4th Grand Falls
As we arrived at Courtrai, Ben asked if he and Devin could have a moment in horseshoe before we left. Well Ben had been working on something for the last few days on the bus, and the results of his efforts blew us all away… not a one of us got back on the bus with dry eyes…
Baloo would have been so very proud 🙂
