Children from: St. Anthony Elementary of St Anthony, Bayview Collegiate of Griquet and Garrigus School of Gunners Cove meet the briefcase.
The sun was shining when the briefcase arrived at L'Anse aux Meadows. Out to sea an iceberg could be seen that day, from the historic site where the remains of the Norse buildings were found. Two humpback whales were observed in the bay at St. Anthony, the nearby town.

The carefully prepared presentation was instantly dropped and the handouts
meant for a group of thirty were later given to the re-enactors. These kids
knew what they were there for- the briefcase!
It was put on a table and everybody was given a chance to study its
contents.
The guest-book was produced and the children were given an opportunity to
sign it. Quite a few were so young that they needed some assistance to perform
this task.
Greetings on behalf of Norstead, A Real Life Saga.
Norstead is situated 2 km from the L'Anse aux Meadows National Historical Site, the only authenticated Viking Site in North America. |
