Nick.
If I may suggest, try and make it for the first weekend in August for the Newfoundland and Labrador Folk Festival, it is a time (party) you will never forget. Some of you on this thread know that I run a Folk Festival (www.ormstownmusicfestival.com) and I consider us pretty friendly and want to make everyone welcome. Well Newfoundland wins hands down. Talk about loyalty, spirit, and togetherness, it's there all wrapped up in one beautiful package that you can;t help but marvel at.
