Hello. day 42 of our road trip started very tiredly. we were on the boat when we got up, and it was very early on when we got up. i was very tired, but once we got off the ship we weren’t as tired. the day had plenty of driving in it. the drive was taking us to my friend Jordan’s house again. (see day 10) we decided that we were going to go on the Cabot trail. the Cabot trail is a very long trail that was named after John Cabot, an explorer who had found Newfoundland and is believed to be where he had landed and explored. it is widely considered the most scenic trail in North America. we didn’t get even close to most of the way, since we realized that it would add multiple hours to our trip. we then visited a very nice cafe called the Clucking Hen to have some breakfast. they served a lot of good food, and some amazing and very full breakfasts. if for some reason you find yourself nearby, definitely try to have breakfast there. once we got aways farther down the road, we kept listening to the second book in the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy series, Restaurant at the End of the Universe. we had started it a while ago, and we finished it a little while before we arrived at Jordan’s house, and it was hilarious. it wasn’t as ridiculous as the first one, but it had more hilarious storytelling. by the time we arrived, i was surprisingly not tired for the fact that i woke up very early. we played for the whole time once we arrived, and we are extremely good friends now. we both love puzzles, Pokemon, D&D, LEGO, and various other things. we played a lot on their iPad, since they had two games that i liked, and they liked them too. the first was called Fisher Cat, where you play as a cat who is a fisher, and you go to various locations aiming to spear fish with your harpoon. the fish vary from things like sharks and tuna, to apple trout, zombie fish, water and fire fish. in one area that only occasionally pops up, there is stuff like bowling pin fish, fish in cars, shuttlecock fish, and various other hilarious stuff. the other was called Merge Tactics, and was a game where you used a large number of different blocks to fend off enemy attacks. you can merge blocks with the same number to make one block with the next number up. the game sequence is a bit confusing, but was not very complex. it takes a while to explain. one of the blocks we found, but didn’t get, was actually Fisher Cat! he was also a very powerful block, so it was kind of unfortunate we couldn’t get him. we played for a while, and then we had to go. i said goodbye to them, and we went to bed. however, i was still going to be there the next day! that’s all for now. Bye! -Colin
